I've been on OST for 10 years, now a zzTakeoff convert. You know the space bar in OST, epic right. Well now you have to use the "N" key for that. This feels in the same vein, the convert to in zz w...

Ok we should take a poll, what are the top 3 keyboard shortcuts at your company? 1. The "N" key is the most used key by 10 fold. Select the right side pane takeoff item, hit the N key and go. Aweso...

You can do as child items, but that imposes its own set of challenges that's not worth the reward.

@Luke Wait...we can do this? I gave it a college try in this 1min video and can't figure it out. Any help here? LINK

Just used it today. Mark this one as completed!

Thanks Justin for the shout out. A yellow folder is what we do, but there is some major problems with this right now causing us lazy people to not be organized since ZZ has not engineered a system ...

on this thread can we add a search feature for “whole worlds only” in the current text search?

@Kory I am fully aligned on locking the templates down completely. Only super users should be able to modify the actual template. But once that template is dropped into a project or takeoff, let th...

@Todd, less concerned about stealing more concerned about not making a cluster F with our 200 estimators. Templates are another area to not cluster up too!

Jumping back in here because I just realized another critical reason this matters as we think about overhauling security. This isn’t just about preventing accidental edits — it’s about protecting e...

I need to make a new list now that you have knocked out most of these. Any Ideas on Number 3 (aka areas and zones from OST that we can't do in zz) came up today with our Pacific group. Not sure h...

Leah over in on of our regions just asked for this. Still want it 150 days later!

i asked chat gpt to write one as Zztakeoff uses math.js (whatever that is it was a important prompt) go try it! Here is my results

Well said. Keeping it simple is what made OST great. We also do self perform and it’s wonderful we can setup multiple templates. One with items/parts and one with just parent takeoff items like OS...

@Victor thx for the picture and another way to do it! Question, I’ve been debating if we should setup our template to where every takeoff item (parent) has a child line item. I feel like you cou...

Love your picture in main post with the circled number, if we can get that to sum up various items below that would be what I need to mark as they key over line quantity for a assembly in Ediphi (e...

💯. To add another thought to this, right now anyone can go into settings and add any WBS/sort code and everyone sees it for every project. This keeps me up at night with more and more people usin...

ahh one way I see this working is the “usage” I the item. Any other ideas? My goal is to transfer this automatically to our estimating tool and usage is not ideal for automated (works awesome for...

The paint quantity rollup example is a takeoff pain we have all struggled with over here (drywall as another example with so many heights). How can I use parts/items to roll up the total?

Tyler, Negative, Thats a 3D tool once you are talking about a tool like Agtek specifically designed for contour volumes.

Here is what I'm seeing today 1/9 with lag on loading plans. LINK

After 156 days of using these grey folders we are loving it! Still want the ability to show/hide all the objects with the eyeball!

@Denton Here is what I would do, hope you like this Parent-Child Relationship. Let me know if thats what your looking for. Here is a 6min video how to make it. LINK

@Rob Good luck talking to your boss. Hope this short video gets you pumped up! LINK

@Andrew I've had the same issue and love that your getting into custom properties. No its not possible yet but I know its on the docket and would not be surprised if its in the next update. Side t...
