this can be done now very efficiently from the reports tab on any takeoff.. and i just thought of a decent workaround for now for anyone that is looking for a quick way to update your templates. ...

Beau, I totally understand the frustration. For Canadian work, metric drawings with imperial materials is a headache, and this feature really matters. That said, I’ve found the ZZ team unusually re...

When you say next update, do you mean next major update, or is this coming somewhat soon?

There are a few ways to approach this, but the simplest option is usually in the Reports tab. If your drawings don’t overlap between the areas you’re trying to separate, you can break the takeoff o...

i appreciate the foresight in blocking multiplier as a property Page level multiplier would for sure be very useful, but I forsee it would be awesome to have both. I would love to have a takeoff le...

i dunno ive been debating adding a custom property called multiplier and having the default setting as 1 then have my formula ("formula") * [multiplier] for each item in my takeoff. as long as its ...

Alternatively, you could do this with three separate linear takeoffs, each counting one panel every 24". If you know which panel the pattern starts with, you can stagger the starting point of each ...

You’re very welcome. I mostly just hack my way through things and gradually improve whatever I’ve built. I’m lucky that a lot of my work is fairly repetitive, so I can keep refining the same templa...

I don’t have full context on your application or how far you’re pushing the software, but if this is a straightforward system, one possible approach in ZZ Takeoff would be to base the takeoff on th...

First VALUE for me SHOULD BE [WMM], but you get the idea. I'm sure this will be useful in other ways too, thought id share.

Hey folks sorry I misspoke / misunderstood. I personally tend to ignore the takeoff level for the most part and create items and reference those properties in the part level to make it work for me....

Yeah grey folders are magic lets get them in the project menu. would be awesome and yes let’s be able to hide even default properties we feel may be irrelevant

You can do this by creating a custom property at the takeoff level just need to commit to a name say Height 2. what I hope for is the eventual ability to reorganize the takeoff pop up so that we ca...

interesting that if i do it one at a time it scales correctly

Dimensional Vancouver

solved!

I believe It should show up as long as the custom property has a value within said specific item. I could be wrong too though.

if You use text with tags for naming you can utilize custom properties for this if you use auto name my work around is to create a zero cost item and attach the label I want to show on the takeoff
