Tags and Text part 7

Tags and Text part 7

Tag and Text - Opaque/transparent as instance parameters rather than type - reduce the total number of text and tag styles that users must pick from. Allow for one setting to be the "default" (i.e. Tags and Text always default to Transparent unless the user selects to make a tag/text instance opaque after creation).  again - so many text styles / tag types to pick from/switch around that only differ by a slight justification, leader, opacity setting are opportiunity for errors and headaches when switching a standard.

For text, I'd prefer leaving it as a type parameter.

 

But for tags, it would be nice to have the Label's (and any Text's) property be linked to a parameter (that I would make a type parameter, but could also be made an instance parameter if you prefer) and would require a new parameter type (sim to http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/tags-and-text-part-5/idi-p/6509333).

There are plenty of times when we need a tag's text to be opaque and plenty of times when we need a tag's text to be transparent, it is stupidly confining to not be able to make an instance parameter for this.
