Curious on the Goal Here—Need to ClarifyBefore we dive too deep, I think we need to step back and ask: what's the actual goal here with the report designer? Is the goal to give subcontractors or GC...

Thanks! I think I know what Greg is really after. He wants to take a drywall measurement in that folder and, instead of duplicating the takeoff and reassigning it to the paint folder with a differe...

Love it and always standard practice when making variables in other tools. I like that its baked in at the root so its harder to mess up.

Can we move to the metric system so we dont have to deal with inches :) I vote decimals too, easier to translate to other tools without messing up the conversions.

@ Todd Yeah lets connect for sure, you have made some waves as well in the industry:) I still disagree that its not working yet to the best it could yet, I would like the folders to also be colla...

@ Brandon I'm going to add you to our next project to bid on. Be interesting to see if both the GC and the Trade partner see benefit in doing takeoff together. Hmmm

Same here! Great idea Todd

+1

@ Brandon, Great point. This is exactly why we use a estimating tool on top of our takeoff. There are so many items (especially when we are doing early concept takeoffs) that we have to "forecast...

@greg I'm learning here too and had to figure this out. I made a 3min video on how to do this. Hope its helpful. Perhaps someday we will use excel and our calculators less! LINK

We’re in a multiplayer web world, folks. If you send me a URL link to your takeoff instead of a PDF, I’ll literally do a celebratory dance jig. You want collaboration? Send the hyperlink. Let the p...

@Casey, Haha I saw that Reddit post and immediately thought of you. I always appreciate your comments, keep ‘em coming!Quick side note: I only get notified when I'm part of the thread in zz. And ho...

@Joseph Doherty Great question. Kreo (google it and I did spell it wrong above, opps) is one of the newer web-based 2D takeoff tools...basically a competitor to Togal.ai. I tried it about a year ag...

Can we please make this simple. However you have the folders on the right pane sorted, that is how it sorts by on the left... with the only difference is page is always the top sort on the left.

@Casey I would try to avoid drawing the same area takeoff. Use Items, they might be your new best friend in the future. I'm learning here but here is what I would try... Thoughts?2 min vid: https:...

I agree with the need to allow for "multipliers" For example if I have only 1 page that represents floors 14-20, I want to put a 7x mutipler on everythign on that page. As far as "typical rooms" li...

Right now it’s the “share with anyone link”. You can talk sharing and collaborating all day long but it’s nothing when you…. Stop taking and click the link. Experiences are more powerful than words.

Fair, I would never use it. Perhaps a check box option upon import. “Use file name to label page”

Shane, I would use folders as your best friend. Right above your very top page 1 there is a “+” button. Add as many folders as you need, shift click the plans you want to drag and drop in the fol...

@Heber, Yeah something simple like that. Here is a 2min brainstorming session to perhaps spark a idea. LINK
