Page Multiplier

Planned

Looking to see if your able to make a page have a setting that can multiply, so if I takeoff an item on a page we would have a setting in the page properties to have a multiplier, this would be helpful when I have a plan that is a typical floor and the takeoff would auto multiply.

Hi, great feature request! I have shared it with the dev team.

Thanks guys. @Jeffery I'm not sure if you use Layers or not, but we're discussing internally whether a page multiplier should be separate per layer, or one value that applies to that page on all layers. Any thoughts?

@Jeffrey I’m not sure how meaningful it is for you to see entire QTO or estimate within zzQTO but sometimes I’ll do the following when I need multiplier:

  1. Duplicate drawing sheet (rename sheet as bldg#, floor#, etc)
  2. Select original QTO object(s) on originating sheet
  3. Then I’ll group those objects if there’s a lot of pieces /parts
  4. Paste into duplicated page
  5. Move into position


very flexible (especially with folders) and works great

Yes thats a work around, but compared to OST, I dont need to do that. Appreciate the tip

The layer function does not work for my use.

Thanks for the tips @Chaz. We would love to make this easier for you @Jeffery, thanks for the feedback.
