I just figured out you should not use the versioning feature that allows you to move or copy takeoffs to the newest version automatically. It now does this without a scale resulting in incorrect t...

You can set them separately. That blue line is 20' long. If I rotate it 90 degrees, it then says it's 40' long.

[..] That will have the child inherit the parents name

It should continue to save all old versions as a child of the newest versions. Edit: just tried it on a revision and mine behave as expected. All previous versions remain as child of latest version

You can add any of your custom properties to your reports worksheet. You can add Qty without waste, Order Qty, etc Qty, and then see any or all of them in your reports.

Good question and I'm interested in hearing the answer. For our use cases, I am adjusting this width and depth on the takeoff item at the beginning of the process. The things I adjust in the repor...

Another competitor selling point bites the dust

I stay in p2p and use click and drag for box but im sure some like the option to have it selectable. Were good either way

I think you have to use this to pull a property from a child

This is where I use custom properties. I don't use cost each, markup, price each or anything built in. I have custom properties setup for material cost, rental cost, subcontractor cost, productio...

I kind of like it.

If you hide all using the eye on the folder and then try to unhide on the page, it doesn't work. If you have everything showing on the page, right click, and use "Hide All", you can then go to the ...

I like it.

Looks like Heber beat me to it. It's not a bug. It's the new workflow which for our use case is a great workflow. The issue with versioning when you don't want plans to version just got fixed in th...

You have to flip through all pages on the new plan import and verify that Old Page = None. Sounds like this work around won't be needed very long at all though thanks to the zz team rapidly improv...

I've requested an option to bypass versioning for this scenario. For now, the work around I use is to flip through the pages on this "Review Pages" screen and make sure the Old Page field is set on...

Out of the box, it would need to be different takeoffs. If you use custom properties like I'm thinking of using, brick will be an each count and labor will be converted to hours/days using a produ...

Custom properties. I'm debating going this route to match our current spreadsheet and I'm needing to create several other custom properties anyway to price the way we price work, so it makes sense...

Our folks have to earn super user status. Start at jr and learn our ways, then get estimator level unlocked and learn those pieces they can change, then sr estimator unlocked and they graduate to ...

My thoughts on locking are relatively simple and look something like this image below. I don't want my end users changing calculations, so I want to minimize and lock that. I may even put the cal...

@Patrick I didn't think about it until I saw your post but there is a work around to undock this now. Open the same job in two browser windows with the takeoff tab open in one and the report tab i...

I like having the choice. We are in the brick industry where brick are typically quoted something like $455/1000 which we price in our templates as $0.455. I'd like to have 3 decimals for brick ...

It's alive!

It will be in the update.
