Maybe I will make a new post, but I keep thinking what would be awesome is if the sum function could work on all children based on tags. For example, if it could iterate through all child, and gr...

Seems like this should be accomplished through an item with a formula to do this. If you post a screen shot I would be willing to help you write the formula.

Can the filter do two types at once? like {type: 'linear' or 'point'} ?

ok yes! thank you, that works perfectly.

The grid tool can only do vertical lines if you just leave the horizontal spacing blank. Then when you align the grid just pick the start and end of one of those lines. You'll draw an area first, ...

Ok, yeah that worked for the 'linear'. I tried the same for the 'volume' and 'wall area' but those are returning zeros instead of 29.88 and 806.81

Is there any way to break the circular error? Either an item that doesn't inherit or an "other" type item that doesn't auto inherit?

Ok yeah both of these work. In my case, I think I won't be using it for fractions of an inch. so I can make the formula variable = [Horizontal Line Spacing] *12 . This will keep it as an inch nu...

out of curiousity, what does the %1 operator do? I understand the ceil function, but I have not seen the % before.

Maybe the report could just show " *varies* " for values that aren't resolvable.

Perhaps you can just give an "alt name" to the "formula (qty)" value from any item, and then anything given that alt name has the value added to it

I have been thinking about the same kind of concept. Variable "buckets" that can be referenced and summed outside of the hierarchy. Use the hierarchy to determine a a qty. But then the ability t...

I will say, this set of drawings did give me an elevation view of the wall that I was able to trace and then use the grid tool with only a vertical spacing, that worked fantastic! ....but an elevat...

I am trying to do point take-offs, it will record 2 to 3 and then stop working. I have to stop the operation and start a new one for it to keep recording point counts.

I completely agree with this request! Keep Lists and templates linked. Sever the link once it is in the take off tab.

I would add to this by saying in addition to the heal function, it would be great if a custom profile could be traced, and let that be the cross section area that is use to calculate the volume.

I was just going to say, I got it to work by referencing the parent and then pathing down to the item I wanted

I agree as well
