Mark Fly Changing a Property from Linear to Area
I used the Schedule tool and inadvertently kept a linear for sidewalks. If there was an option to add a width or depth parameter this would be fine to get my SF/CY. So I thought I could change it to a Area but do not see a way to do that. Am I missing it? Or is that not available at this time?
Thnx!
Hi Mark. I hope all is well. This is not available yet, but we will definitely be adding this soon 🙂
Definitely looking forward to this. Inputing wall heights with linear to calculate wall area would be very helpful. Looking forward to this ability asap Heber. Thank you
Hi Mark! Our latest update helps with this. If you have a takeoff, but have not drawn any objects on the pages yet for that takeoff, you can change the type by right clicking on the takeoff in the right sidebar, and going to the "Change Type" submenu. For now, it can only do this if the user has not drawn any objects on the page yet for the takeoff, but in the future we'll make it better so it can convert an area to linear, etc. even if there are objects drawn on the page for that takeoff.
