I bet you can make that happen with Claude connected via MCP. It's on my list to play with. All the TOF, TOW, BOF, BOW, FFE's, etc can be easily added as custom properties.

From what I've learned so far, you come up with an idea, and then see if Claude and devmode can do it. The prompt I'd start with is "this is what I want to do. can you do this?" One example is ...

Did something change? Last time I copied, it didnt duplicate totals. Takeoffs on outdated sheets no longer added into totals.

Id ask Claude to teach me or just do it for me

I'm finally getting some time in with Claude, MCP, and dev mode and all I have to say is this is a game changer. Fun stuff. Can't wait to see what comes out of the estimating community.

did it go off air?

We aren't receiving them, but I've asked Architects if they can provide them for us and some have.

To add to this, it would be nice to be able to move where things show up such as moving width and depth to the measurements heading

I had 5 at one point. Then I realized that I'm a terrible multitasker and much better when focused so dropped back to one 38".

if you want straight, curved, and bigger than Bryan's...

Agreed and that's what puts me in the middle. smaller screens flat. larger screens curved but small curve. There is a curve spec and some have a very pronouced curve for immersion while gaming. Som...

Flat works for me up to about 27". From there I prefer a slightly curved monitor. I have used a lot of different sizes, counts, curved, and flat and settled on this. At this 38" size, i wouldn't...

Now if we can just lock individual sections of an item such as locking formulas while leaving variables unlocked

Similarly, we'd like our viewers to be able to view and hide layers. If they can't, they're always taking the extra step of calling someone that is a licensed user just to hide takeoffs that aren'...

You can add it as a job level custom property.

We use method one and method two depending on how the plans are detailed and specified. Some engineers specify lap length in inches and some specify it in X bar diameters. I've never used method ...

The other option that I use when I want a variable on one thing only is put in my qty formula and add those variables times zero. A*B+C + (V*0)

Now you understand why I said on day one we needed permissions and locking prior to me setting up everything for our company and rolling it out to all users?

I'm not sure. We set the version when we import and don't use layers for that type of versioning.

Can you use the versioning feature to distinguish between GMP IFC and ASI instead of layers?
