How to display shape data on the document itself

I updated a sketch and I added data to shapes.

Is there a way to display this data next to the shapes easily? So it would show up when I print it? Or do I need to do it manually by adding text boxes or callouts?

Solution 1:

You could try using text fields.

For example: below is a shape with some shape data

Edit the text of the shape.

And from the ribbon choose Insert/Field

And then Under Shape Data, select the property you want

Now the shape's text will contain the data

Afterwards, any change to the data will change the shape text

Aftwerwards you can displace the Text box from the shape it is attached to so that the text appears next to the shape.

Solution 2:

This exactly what data graphics are for. Once you have your data defined, use menu Data -> Data Graphics
