Circular Reference
7d 2h
Hey David, this one is interesting. I think this issue is happening because of the auto-inheritance we have with the takeoffs down to the items. Essentially, if you try to sum from the takeoff whi...
Splitting line items by finish level in reports for batch editing
7d 2h
Hey Trenton, this could be caused if your "Finish Level" had an extra space at the end or front, or if the options in a dropdown changed halfway through the project. I would double-check your item...
Reports Data
7d 6h
Hey Eliseo, just edited Paul's message to be correct. Area always uses area:sf, Linear/Segment uses "linear:ft", etc, not measurement 1.
Hyperlink Notes
8d 5h
Hey Perry! This is a planned feature - we'll add hyperlinks to the notes. 🙂
Adding takeoffs directly into report
8d 5h
Hey Andrew, you can't drag/drop/re-order takeoffs in reports, but you can add and edit takeoffs. For the takeoff tree reports, we added a button for "New" or "New Child" takeoffs. You can also do...
Take Off Preset
8d 5h
Hey Eliseo! Right now, the presets do not save the name. A few users have requested this, so we are planning to add an option to save the name soon.
Import lists into dropdowns within custom properties
9d 6h
Hey Andrew, we are planning to introduce the ability to pull dropdown options from a list (currently, we have product and template lists). In that case, you could batch-import your options into a ...
Random Color
9d 7h
Thanks for the feature request, Thomas! I'll let the team know about this. 🙂
Drawing Sets in a Layer
9d 7h
Not yet, but that is an interesting idea! I moved this to feature requests.
Show Icon for pages with annotations (notes, dimensions & highlights)
9d 7h
Hey Edinsa, thanks for the feature request. Right now, our version of that icon is coloring/changing out the page icon. Do you think it would be enough if we have 4 versions of this page icon?1. Pa...
Alternative to Undocking Sidebar
9d 7h
Hey Andrew, no options to split the sidebars yet, but I believe it is something we are planning on adding. 🙂
Units - to match measurement type
9d 22h
We've considered adding measurement 1-3 as formula variables, but the main holdback is that if a user switches the units or switches the measurement, it could completely break your formula & pricin...
Additional Section Property Features
10d 2h
Thanks for the feature request! If you have section properties enabled, you can do "Text With Tags" on the section, not a unique color yet, though. I think the text with tags ability will be added...
Auto collapse in reports
10d 2h
Gotcha. We'll dig into this. We had another user chat in saying they were experiencing the same thing.
Is it possible to reference the Grid "Horizontal Line Spacing" and "Vertical Line Spacing" in text with tags?
10d 2h
You can also do "[Horizontal Line Spacing:dimension]" and that will output the dimension formatted. You can also use the ".in" to get the inches entered, and ".ft" to get the feet entered (note th...
Drawing list for Contract Documents
10d 7h
Hey Perry, not yet, but this is a great feature request! It may also be something you could do with a script once we release scripting.
Auto collapse in reports
10d 7h
Hey Justin, did you save your report after you made this change? The Default Reports do not save report settings or columns that are added/removed. We should also load the last report you had ope...
Hide symbol - opacity
10d 7h
Hey KevOB, we don't have a way to hide those inputs yet, but we are planning to allow you to customize the form layout really soon, which would allow you to add or remove inputs.
Units - to match measurement type
10d 7h
Hey Thomas, are you talking about the units for a takeoff/item combination? What are you changing to "Wall Area"? Are you changing measurement 1, or the qty formula to "[Wall Area]"? Right now, w...
Organize custom reports by usage and by the order displayed at the takeoff/assembly level
10d 7h
If you group by usage and sort by usage, it will sort alphabetically. If you are not sorting by anything, it should be sorted in the same order as the takeoff sidebar order.
Segment with Wall Height
10d 22h
I would recommend using "Text With Tags" Mode. The formula mode tries to evaluate your formula as if it were a math expression - '1 + 1', etc. Whereas the text with tag mode replaces any [tags] w...
Organize custom reports by usage and by the order displayed at the takeoff/assembly level
11d 1h
Hey Fernando, I believe the cost types are always in the following order for reports that group by cost type (unless you reverse the sort):MaterialLaborEquipmentSubcontractOther There is no way to ...
Product properties
11d 1h
Hey Eliseo, we have a video (a little outdated now) that explains how to set up a custom property and some of the uses. The main difference between this video and what we have right now is that ins...
Auto Show Count Labels (Toggle & Position)
13d 22h
Thanks for the feature requests! As a workaround for the Auto Show Count Takeoff Labels, if you use templates, you can make the label automatically show by using the Default Label Settings. We do...
Adjust Segments with Other Segments (and measurements between segments)
13d 22h
Now this is cool! Thank you for the feature requests, Kevin. We'll have to look into this!
