Yeah we have run into this on almost every project and have needed to go back to planswift for this (and only this) functionality

Change Item/Folder Layer

I've found a few instances where it would be nice to be able to grab a bunch of items and or folders and move them to a different layer. There ar...

Noticing that, with overlays, not having the ability to level the sheet can cause some issues. Not sure if there is a work around. See image below for example. The area in yellow shows the build...

Overlays only working on the layer in which they were established

I'm finding that, when I switch layers, my overlay is no longer visible. Default Layer (established overlay on this layer) Sitework ...

Not your average overlay

Heber, I've been thinking more about the overlay feature. I'm sure it's complicated to impliment, but I think a functionality/fundamental cha...

Hidden Take-off

Scenario: You have take-off item in a subfolder "hidden". You then decide that you want to show all hidden items within a folder structure and s...

Default Mark-up Formatting

Could use a "use as default" checkbox for mark-ups, (i.e. call-out and cloud) so that you don't have to format each mark-ups font and line width e...

Restrict Users from Editing Templates

It would be great to have a simple permission option of, Can Edit Templates (checkbox Y/N) at the user level. We have already had as issue of user...

Back/forward plan sheets buttons

It would be great to have another toggle that brings you to the previous page you were on.

Unable to reorder folders

Thank you Heber

Unable to reorder folders

I've brought a project in from Planswift. The folders look like they all came in, but not in the correct order. When I try to move folder 01 in ...

PS Import File Scramble

When I imported my Planswift job, my plans all get scrambled up and don't appear in order or in the folders in which they live. Any thoughts?

Change Take-off Item Layer

Once complete, can you change the layer in which a take-off item is on?

Adding Dimensions Within a Count Assembly

I would also add that having the concrete take-off items scale to the dimension indicated in the item is important. We like to see a continous footing line weight at 3'0 if it's a 3' wide footing,...

I need help answering the question, "Why Change from OST"

I think you hit this with "shared drawings-one person imports", but having one user manage addenda issuances should be hightlighted. If you have multiple estimators and an addendum is issued which...

Collecting Input: Integrations and AI Features

Heber, it would be great if you could "like" or "upvote" another users post (unless I mised it). Kyle crushed it with his comments and I would agree with most of them. This may be outside of th...

Help Button Broken Links

There are a few links, Training Videos and Community, in the (?) at the top right that don't work. I got to them through the community tab, but w...

Collecting Input: Zoom Tools

Bottom right is sufficient. No need for the redundancy is my vote.

Heber, Wondering if there is any ETA on this. I'm currently piloting this program and this one is likely a big deal for our estimators. Thank you in advance.
