I'm curious if CA can give that number?  https://1drv.ms/u/s!AonCBRorVv74rGi9iyjb6dwcmDPq?e=ghezpm

Do you mean the opening in the wall or the actual glass area of the window?   The window area (including frame and all other components for mounting the glass) are baked in calculations that CA does automatically and can show on the schedule.  The area of the glass not including mounting components is not tracked by CA but can be calculated using a custom ruby macro.

Look at the options in the window schedule, and remember to add your total line at the bottom.

Thanks - I appreciate it.

 

I think this is what you are saying?  I copied the header and in the bottom right that number is the total sq footage.
