`Runtime error (NotSupportedException)` in Grasshopper when using `draw_labels`

Getting a runtime error when trying to draw a text label in Rhino with Grasshopper.
Can be reproduced by running the following code in a GHPython component:
from compas_rhino.utilities import draw_labels
draw_labels([{"pos": [0, 0, 0], "text": "this is a text"}])
The full error:
Runtime error (NotSupportedException): This type of object is not supported in Grasshopper, so this Python script cannot create it. You might want to use 'scriptcontext.doc = Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc' to use the Rhino doc, instead? If you do, remember to restore it: 'scriptcontext.doc = ghdoc'.
Traceback:
line 110, in draw_labels, "C:\Users\ckasirer\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\7.0\scripts\compas_rhino\utilities\drawing.py"
line 57, in wrapper, "C:\Users\ckasirer\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\7.0\scripts\compas_rhino\utilities\drawing.py"
line 3, in script
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Window 7
- Rhino 7 SR36
Additional context
The suggested solution in the error (setting scriptcontext.doc
to RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc
) doesn't produce a different result.
However, this code works:
import Rhino
text = Rhino.Geometry.TextDot("this is a text", Rhino.Geometry.Point3d(0, 0, 0))
Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Objects.AddTextDot(text)

i guess the question is if GH components should create baked text dots...

Ahh that's a good point. Was so annoyed at this not working (was the support removed? I vaguely recall this used to work..) that I didn't even notice it's baked..
