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.

Custom Properties

My best guess as to how this meant to work is don’t hide anything until you’re finished building. then hide anything/everything and all the irrelevant stuff will disappear. ie. any custom propertie...
