When you receive a new set of plans that actually has a searchable text layer

Separate out takeoffs by area
163d 3h
I don't know if this is an easy way but to handle stuff like this I currently duplicate the default layer, and then delete the extra stuff I don't want on that layer. So in your situation I would...
Linear Openings
165d 3h
Didn't know until a few hours ago that in the latest update you can now manually enter negative linear takeoff values. So my new workaround (unless functionality is added to change actual takeoff ...
Set default sizes for text and takeoff lines
165d 5h
I didn't even know you guys put this into the latest update till Derek told me about this new stealth gearbox for creating defaults and presets for takeoff objects. Very cool
Closing Out Jobs
165d 9h
I don't know if this is related to this, but still would like the ability to mark & lock a finished projected so that if someone goes back in to browse it in the future they can't accidentally dele...
Takeoff Multiplier
165d 9h
Multipliers at the takeoff level and/or page level would be good
Filter button in reports tab
149d 9h
Not sure if this is a bug but are these filter icons supposed to be functional after you set a column filter, or are they just an indicator to let...

Linear Openings
166d 19h
Bumping this thread because I've been loving the new Duplicate As feature to instantly create a linear takeoff from the perimeter of an area takeoff, and naturally the next thing I'd like is functi...
Search Image Symbols
169d 2h
And the ability to search multiple selected pages instead of all
Hide/Show takeoff updates
169d 3h
TJ yeah I requested exactly what you are talking about several months back on this thread https://www.zztakeoff.com/app/community/feature-requests/visibility
Batch Rotate Pages
169d 9h
Bumping Kory's request for the ability to rotate an entire page by increments the same way we can now with objects. I just got a set of plans where a huge portion of the floors are drawn diagonally...
Ready to Test: December 2025 Release with a Ton of New Features
170d 6h
Ok that works. So Convert To --> hit space bar--> start typing. Thanks
Ready to Test: December 2025 Release with a Ton of New Features
170d 6h
Is there any way we can have the option of having the Convert To command default you into the Takeoffs menu instead of the New menu? I liked being able to just hit convert and start typing the nam...
Filling cutout
171d 4h
I just realized that I think the latest update can do this now. After you perform a cutout, right click on the cutout and then click on the new Duplicate As... feature, then either click New Area t...
Ready to Test: December 2025 Release with a Ton of New Features
172d 4h
Either way works for me, I just didn't know if it was a bug or not. 3 decimals for text properties is fine
Ready to Test: December 2025 Release with a Ton of New Features
172d 8h
Not sure if this is a bug or intentional, but when I set a takeoff's name to Text with Tags and use [Area] or [Linear] in the name, it truncates the value to thousandths instead of hundredths. When...
Ready to Test: December 2025 Release with a Ton of New Features
187d 7h
Really wanted to try to help test this but ended up with a surprise bid invite and a revision on a large project right before Christmas last week 😫
Convert From Feature
187d 8h
Still on my wish list (Below image illustrates how I would like to see an enhancement to the Extract Schedule tool to create counts with length & width measurements filled in. Would be huge time s...
Layer Request - Controlling the Default Layer shown
194d 8h
Yes this would be nifty, along with the ability to clone/duplicate a layer the same way you can now duplicate projects
Hotkey for Dimension
197d 3h
"H" key for Hide when I have a takeoff object selected (or multiple selected) so that I don't need to right click it/them and scroll down to the Hide command would be cool too
Text search specific pages instead of all pages
199d 9h
This came up again this week on a current project I'm working on where I'm trying to find a needle in a haystack but I can't filter/limit the text search 😫
Cutout takeoff Reassignment
204d 4h
@Tim yeah I run into this as well with cutouts and the workaround I use is to go to your left or right panel and find & left click on the takeoff object on the panel that corresponds to that area y...
Fill in area after cutout
204d 5h
I see, so it will take care of this feature request from earlier this year as well. Awesome
Fill in area after cutout
204d 6h
Oh wow! I forgot about this old feature request of mine from last year. This was way back before you guys added snap and ortho to the platform. Heber that duplicate feature looks like it would do t...
Layers
204d 6h
I also use layers on projects with multiple structures in case the GC wants separate quotes for each building and just to keep things cleaner
