Un-Hide TakeOffs

@Aaron, OMG those decimals would kill me, you should default your workspace to no decimals.
Hyperlinks indicating that

Yeah this would be wonderful!
Terminology - Area Section vs Area Object
74d 9h
I know how important this will be in the future. The BIM world (and other 2D/3D tools like Kreo) references these as "instances" If I were building zzTO that's what I would call them. "Instances".....
Grid Tool, Joist Tool, and Beam Tool

@Heber, Great Visual I'm thinking about this a little differently from a process piping standpoint. Imagine the parent being a linear and you want each section of pipe for spool length. If its ...
Hatch Patterns on Area

@ Vincent, We also switched from OST.....however when we get CUI jobs (high security) I have to go back and use OST still. Lets just say I have had to increase my therapy sessions when this happens.

Takeoff Multiplication

@TecTon Estimating Good idea! This tool is crazy flexible...now imagine if you had 200 estimators working in your environment and everyone kept adding custom fields.......yeah thats our problem r...
Collecting Input: Slice Command
77d 11h
Love it! Agree with the polyline as the default too. So glad you didn't start with "auto areas" that draw boxes for us, as that is junk if you can't "slice" the area boxes. This is foreshadowing...
Sorting of Child Line Items
77d 12h
Thank you Stephen! Going to be key to make this clean for our people. Right now I think the best-work-around is making a number in the name, but then that gets lame when you transfer it over to th...
Product Unit - Number of Characters Max

Our company went 2 characters and lower case…. Bet you would put in your two weeks notice😂
Template Names

Wildly different take here don’t lock it down. We have 130 estimators in zzTakeoff right now. Someone figured out custom properties on their own. My reaction? Yes. Finally. That person is now one ...
Is there a way to batch update items?
79d 6h
+1 here too. I see zzTakeoff being the source of truth for things like production, wbs codes and heck even pricing, but hard to commit if there is not a good workspace/enterprise updater that flow...
Drawing Questions
80d 2h
1. Max out your ORTHO snap and it will get close to what your asking. 2. Yeah hard to show in a picture so here is a 60sec viedo. LINK

Can folders have a the [qty] and [unit] property exposed and assigned through formula or text?
82d 23h
Oh wow I figured out how to get what I struggled with at the end of that vid...to send to the estimating tool. This feature is awesome!
Can folders have a the [qty] and [unit] property exposed and assigned through formula or text?
82d 23h
@ David Fun to kick around ideas. This might spark a thought on how we are planning on doing it. Granted I struggled at the end there with the report in zz, as its hard to show without importing...
Child Takeoffs in Report
84d 5h
@Jeff, I would build another custom report but start with the Takeoff Tree Reports. Kind of a cool thing they made here and I bet it will get better as this is your work-around for now that works g...
Decimal Places
84d 5h
This is not possible yet, you can round the items but yeah agree, down with the decimals.
Child Takeoff Name Option
84d 6h
Text with tags is your friend. You have no idea, this is only the surface of what you can do. muhahhhahaWe have all this pre-built in our templates so its setup for the newbies to fly. 1min overvi...
Drawings wont move to folders when they have takeoffs.
84d 6h
Sweet if we can replicate it that means we can fix it, whaooo.
Page Management / Organization
85d 5h
@Stephen, Careful where you share that.......if our people at HP get ahold of that we will have a ton of custom prosperities that we can't control. Need enterprise permissions stat!
