Cloning a layer
36d 7h
Hey Matthew, this can be done right now by clicking the layer dropdown, the 3 dot menu on the layer you want to duplicate, and selecting "Duplicate".
Circular Reference
36d 7h
Glad that worked! Currently, we only filter to 1 type, so in this example, your formula would be "sum('linear', {type: 'linear'}) + sum('linear', {type: 'count'})"
Array - Objects not holding rotation
40d 3h
Hey Justin, we released a patch that should fix this. 🙂
Circular Reference
40d 3h
Ah.. I should have clarified. For the second parameter for the sum function, you can pass in a filter to either type or kind. The type is based on the takeoff type that you want to filter to, which...
Joist take off tool
40d 10h
Hey Wesley, in our next update, we will have text with tags for "Material Size" and "Material Type". Another thing - You can reference "[Spacing:dimension]" to get the dimension of (1'-4"), or yo...
Circular Reference
40d 10h
You could potentially filter the sum function to type "linear" (note this is case sensitive, lower case for now).
Circular Reference
40d 11h
Hey David, this one is interesting. I think this issue is happening because of the auto-inheritance we have with the takeoffs down to the items. Essentially, if you try to sum from the takeoff whi...
Splitting line items by finish level in reports for batch editing
40d 11h
Hey Trenton, this could be caused if your "Finish Level" had an extra space at the end or front, or if the options in a dropdown changed halfway through the project. I would double-check your item...
Reports Data
40d 15h
Hey Eliseo, just edited Paul's message to be correct. Area always uses area:sf, Linear/Segment uses "linear:ft", etc, not measurement 1.
Hyperlink Notes
41d 13h
Hey Perry! This is a planned feature - we'll add hyperlinks to the notes. 🙂
Adding takeoffs directly into report
41d 14h
Hey Andrew, you can't drag/drop/re-order takeoffs in reports, but you can add and edit takeoffs. For the takeoff tree reports, we added a button for "New" or "New Child" takeoffs. You can also do...
Take Off Preset
41d 14h
Hey Eliseo! Right now, the presets do not save the name. A few users have requested this, so we are planning to add an option to save the name soon.
Import lists into dropdowns within custom properties
42d 15h
Hey Andrew, we are planning to introduce the ability to pull dropdown options from a list (currently, we have product and template lists). In that case, you could batch-import your options into a ...
Random Color
42d 15h
Thanks for the feature request, Thomas! I'll let the team know about this. 🙂
Drawing Sets in a Layer
42d 16h
Not yet, but that is an interesting idea! I moved this to feature requests.
Show Icon for pages with annotations (notes, dimensions & highlights)
42d 16h
Hey Edinsa, thanks for the feature request. Right now, our version of that icon is coloring/changing out the page icon. Do you think it would be enough if we have 4 versions of this page icon?1. Pa...
Alternative to Undocking Sidebar
42d 16h
Hey Andrew, no options to split the sidebars yet, but I believe it is something we are planning on adding. 🙂
Units - to match measurement type
43d 7h
We've considered adding measurement 1-3 as formula variables, but the main holdback is that if a user switches the units or switches the measurement, it could completely break your formula & pricin...
Additional Section Property Features
43d 11h
Thanks for the feature request! If you have section properties enabled, you can do "Text With Tags" on the section, not a unique color yet, though. I think the text with tags ability will be added...
Auto collapse in reports
43d 11h
Gotcha. We'll dig into this. We had another user chat in saying they were experiencing the same thing.
Is it possible to reference the Grid "Horizontal Line Spacing" and "Vertical Line Spacing" in text with tags?
43d 11h
You can also do "[Horizontal Line Spacing:dimension]" and that will output the dimension formatted. You can also use the ".in" to get the inches entered, and ".ft" to get the feet entered (note th...
Drawing list for Contract Documents
43d 16h
Hey Perry, not yet, but this is a great feature request! It may also be something you could do with a script once we release scripting.
Auto collapse in reports
43d 16h
Hey Justin, did you save your report after you made this change? The Default Reports do not save report settings or columns that are added/removed. We should also load the last report you had ope...
Hide symbol - opacity
43d 16h
Hey KevOB, we don't have a way to hide those inputs yet, but we are planning to allow you to customize the form layout really soon, which would allow you to add or remove inputs.
Units - to match measurement type
43d 16h
Hey Thomas, are you talking about the units for a takeoff/item combination? What are you changing to "Wall Area"? Are you changing measurement 1, or the qty formula to "[Wall Area]"? Right now, w...
