Hidden Custom Properties

So I created a series of custom properties, not all properties apply to all takeoffs, trying to clean this up I hide all of the properties that would not apply to takeoffs, however the issue I have is that when hidden and shown as additional properties in the takeoff properties, the features of the custom properties are removed, these are pulldowns, and the pulldowns are no longer active so make changes will not work, they will also not appear in the right click option to update property.


Looking to see if any of the custom properties are used anywhere within the takeoff, can they be fully available for that takeoff item?


The custom properties list can end up getting out of hand and having so many properties in all of the takeoff are quite over whelming especially when getting new users trained to use the system

Hey Jeffery, when you hide the custom properties, if you want your existing takeoff properties to show in the correct group and have the dropdowns, you will need to "show" those properties on the takeoff/template.


Once you apply that custom property to the takeoff/template, it will also show up in the right-click update property menu as well.

Ok, got it now, Thanks
