Copy and paste objects to different pages in different scales?

Planned

Hi, is there a way to copy an takeoff object in one scale on a page and paste that same object onto another page of a different scale? For example, I would love to be able to copy wall elevations on one page and copy those wall elevations onto a floor plan that has a different scale but have ZZtakeoff keep all sizes correct. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Travis! There's not a way to do this currently, but we'll add to the list (at least to have the option). We did have some discussion quite a while back about whether or not we should adjust. There are pros/cons of compensating for scale. For example, on notes or arrows, we would probably want those to ignore scale when copy/paste, but for takeoffs, maybe we should make it remember the scale and adjust the points accordingly.

Thanks Heber,


yes, I wouldn't think it really matters with notes, arrows, etc. With takeoff, it would save so much time and allow for more comprehensive review.


Thanks!
