Color Choice "Lock"

I would like this too. My suggestion is to allow a custom property to drive the color selection. If I change the property name the assigned color changes automatically

@Heber, I’m not Kyle so I don’t want to put words in his mouth, but I think we’re generally talking about the same thing. I’m hesitating on the word “instances” because I could also see users inter...
zzTakeoff Shortcut Pin to Taskbar
12d 14h
I thought I wanted it. I've tried both. They work but personally I prefer zz living inside my default browser. Mostly because it's easier to navigate multiple tabs open. ZZ and non. I deleted the C...

Request to Allow Quantity Adjustment at Report Level
14d 5h
i like the idea though as well, to just override in reports and create a new total for an item and move on. i also had a feature request previously to be able to round up to nearest at the combine...

Page Multiplier - Appearance
16d 14h
I like where this is heading. My only suggestion is to keep the door open for future development. At some point it would be valuable to be able to define what each instance of the multiplier repres...
Filter By Name

yes you can but not in the takeoff tree reports, at least i think. expand report until you see a linear, count or area instance. hover over one and you will see an arrow pointing -> click on that
Batch Editing in the Reports. Paste in Text Cells

Kyle, try adding a default value to the property I’ve noticed you can’t edit if it wasn’t something there before
Please stop messing with my Columns! Ahhhh

Upcoming Feature: Calculation Sequence - Calculation at Takeoff Level or Object Level
23d 3h
Very cool! i'm hopeful there will be a workflow to multi select takeoff items on a page. Or are you thinking properties like Building, Phase and Zone would also be able to be set as Page level prop...

that's awesome! I'm in a situation where most of the time I'm hoping for functionality to go the other way with roundup. totaling all matching items on all takeoffs and rounding up On another note,...
zzTakeoff has some Competition! Oh boy and this looks amazing.

the extra frustrating part about the latter being if your intention is to make the same selection, the only way to refresh is to select something else and then come back to original selection

Chris, as far as I understand it would only update a fresh takeoff if you create a new one on the spot, or make a new selections on your lists within the template you choose
