Q & ACustom Properties - Computed Type
Good morning ZZ team, just got to say that the latest update with the new Computed Type in Custom Properties is the BOMB and will be a game changer for users. Thanks for all of the hard work!
Hi Shane, isn't this fun?
I am glad you chose zzTakeoff and I can't wait to see what you build in your templates!
Good morning Sir, I see your up early with early this morning!
Funny Story - My wife just laughed at me last night after we got home. First thing I did was grab the laptop and get back into ZZ. I'm on a deadline to finish setting up the workspace for the client you and I have been discussing as of late. When I saw that the system was down temporarily for the update, I was like "Ughh", but no big deal, we enjoyed a glass of wine and some quiet time together sitting outside around the fire pit. She asked me if I would be waking up at 4:00 am like a kid on Christmas morning to see what new toys were in ZZ, and I said nope, I'm sleeping in. Guess what - 4:00 am on the dot!
Have a great Sunday!
Can someone please give an example of what you could use the "Computed Type" in Custom Properties? Just curious how others are using this.
TIA!
I could see you using it for calculating the different heights of two manholes for an average depth from invert to rim elevations.
You can carry that result down to the part level in multiple parts. Like a giant formula window in the takeoff properties
Ahhhh ok I got it now, thanks Todd!
