Wall Table Grouping?

[ACADuser]

I wanted a simple wall table with an added field to show 2x the wall length for drywall length.

But when I added this %(length / 12 * 2).round(2)%  to one of the fields in each wall "object Information" the table displays all walls as line items.

Is there a way to do this and keep the simple table?

Try checking the "sum similar rows" option to see if that gives you what you need.

I have that checked for wall length & it produces the table above. I wanted to go one step further & use my formula to get 2 times the length to get drywall length. When I do that the table separates all walls and I get a very large table.

Because the wall lengths are different each wall will be a separate line.  

"Sum Similar Rows" really means "Exactly the Same"

That is what I'm up against. There seems to be no way around this limitation.

i.e. limiting the wall comparison in the table. I suppose if you knew you way around material list one could tease out a similar table using that material list?

Are you trying to get the schedule to only have one line that shows the sum of the drywall lengths?

I did this with added Mtext object. There are only 5 wall types in the plan.
