Upgrade legend components

Upgrade legend components

Legend components are great, we use them for all sorts of things, but they have some rather silly limitations.

 

Why, for example, can't we add a floor in plan view? This would be very handy for landscaping elements, where you have used a floor for paving, grass, etc.

 

Why can't we flip/mirror the component? This would b very useful for window/door elevation schedules (which are easily created as legends). It would also come in handy for many other uses.

 

Legend Components could definitely do with a bit of an update, but the least would be to standardise the view types you can have for the existing components and add the ability to flip/mirror components.

 

Then, maybe add a few more categories in...

With that improvement, this would be nice to have an option to use the same filter on walls, and on legend component of the wall

I, too, wish I could use a floor component in plan view. I struggled with this for 10 minutes before searching and finding I can't do it. The other recommendations on this post are good too.

General rotation of legend component would also be appreciated

The use of the floor component in plan view is ABSOLUTELY necessary!!!
