dskogg Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I want to show a window schedule for each elevation only showing the windows on that elevation, what is the best way to do this? This way i can show the sq footage of windows on that wall exposure and have it totaled in the schedule for just that wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only include the windows in that schedule from that active floor via the schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskogg Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 Rene, but that doesnt just show windows on schedule for say a north elevation that is two stories high, am i missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renerabbitt Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Ahh, I missed the specifics. Thinking outside of the box I would probably modify the window labels to include the relevant information and drag the label to align as a sorted list on a side bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renerabbitt Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 You could accomplish this with a text and blank leader using macros as well which would leave the label alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're complicated. Don't bother learning RUBY unless you literally have nothing to do for weeks or months. BUY them. You'll feel fantastic about your awesome decision making ability!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dskogg Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 isnt there an easy calc i can do in the label, ie =widthxheight/144? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if you're looking to display the areas as it pertains to ABC 9.10.15, I can tell you that the macro is far from simple. I bought mine from @Alaskan_Son and I could never have come up with it. I assume that is the reason you'd like a window schedule from one elevation only. Here's an elevation that shows a customized schedule based on macros.
