Hello.
BIM section entities work only with 3D entities.
2D and text entities are not included in the result of a BIM section.The alternative would be to create an additional standard viewport in a layout of the model drawing and include that layout in the sheet set of the project.
Another alternative, although more complex, would be to place the text inside a block.
The block can be laid on any layer, layer 0 for instance.However, in order for this to work, two conditions are required:
- Inside the block definition, the text should be placed on layer BRX_2D+_Swing.
- Besides the text, the block should include a polyline entity, also placed on layer BRX_2D+_Swing.
Print BIM Sections with text
Hi, new in Bricscad, trying to migrate.
Is there any possibility to use BIM section including text?

Why does the block need to include a polyline? Maybe this is why I've gotten inconsistent results with using BIM_2D and BRX_2D layers?

Hello.
The approach I mentioned is not a specification - it is not the intended way of working.
It is just something that works in this particular case.1
