ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 So my wall schedule was fine & printed several times. It is in the plan file. But this morning it expanded on me & I can't find the setting to compact the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 I think I see what caused the sch to expand. Adding a foundation wall with a wide footing, but I deleted the foundation walls but the schedule will not shrink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 My solution was to delete the schedule & recreate it. Does anyone know a more elegant solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Oh, I'll try that next time. Fortunately only 2 columns had to be removed to restore my intended schedule. So if you had a window schedule would that cause a re-sort of the window order? Trying to plot this file for a deadline & I dare not mess with anything else, just now.

Great if you're using an alpha-numerical ordering type, but not-so-great if you've made adjustments to order using numbered callouts that you want to preserve.

ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 My typical procedure is to rearrange the sch so all windows on each floor are grouped together & numbers follow a counter clockwise order. I hate when the schedule is resorted! so the ctrl-x will kill my sort for windows & doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey_Cannata Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 If you run into this preview issue again, ensure that the "Use Plan View Scale" setting is turned on in the schedule specifications. This setting scales the previews to the size they appear at in plan view, and limits the row height to the tallest preview. Based on the images provided, it looks like that setting was turned off somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 What happened is that I added a foundation wall without excluding it from the wall schedule. The wide footing caused all the rows to expand. When I realized that I deleted the 3 foundation walls but the schedule did not resize. The "Use Plan View Scale" was checked & I unchecked & rechecked but no change in the schedule. Only when I deleted & recreated the schedule did it size correctly. As Robert pointed out you must recreate the schedule to get it to resize correctly. So when you remove an item that is expanding the rows the schedule failed to recognize that. It should resize on it own. Is that a bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey_Cannata Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 The behavior you're describing sounds like a bug. The schedule should always resize to fit the objects included. If you're able to reproduce this, I would recommend logging a bug report with all of the appropriate information so we can investigate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
