Hi @dimven
Thanks for pushing that script--a great start.

Is it possible to get the tags to not overlap on each other?
possible to move them over a little to the left, so they fit in that rectangle?
test file and tag family...

Hi,
Did you run the graph twice consecutively as per the description? Remember the first run places the tags and fixes the API bug (automatically nudges the tags up and down so that they're not just showing a question mark). Only then can we get the correct extents of the tags and continue with part 2 - making sure they don't overlap
Is the box that you're referring to part of the titleblock family?

hi.. well look at that, no I did not do that! Will try. :)
I just meant moving the placed tags over to the left a little more to fit in the box illustrated below...
see sheet layout in this file...

Is that correct?

That is totally it. We align the outside extent of the tag with the edge of the crop. I put a bit of a buffer of 0.5 ft. because it seemed to work well and look nice with the common cases. If you'd like we could externalize it as an input.
