Hello,
I did some projects with quantifying of brickwork etc in BA.
The detailed reports I get in excell give me problems: I cannot see which wall is measured on a specific line.
The only thing I get in my detailed report is the ID number. But I want to give some 'description' of the position of the wall in the building. And I want to attach that 'description' to my wall in an easy way.
I see I can attach that 'description' now quite straightforward to my walls I place with datagroups. I have fields for description, tag, keynote, notes, ...
But is it possible to get this information of my wall in my detailed report?
Or is there any other way for the moment to accomplish what I described?
Thanks for any advice,
Luc Dierick
Steve,
My problem right now is I can make an excell output with datagroup explorer with my "description" of the wall but in that output excell sheet I have no "net area" of all my walls.
On the other hand I can make a detailed report of my walls with quantifying but in that report I have only my ID's and not my datagroup "description". And my ID is not visible in the plan (and is telling nothing about the position of a particular wall in the building).
I want some text for each wall I can easily attach and that is visible as well in my plans as in my excell sheet with my detailed "net areas".
All contractors are asking this and my firm does not want to automate quantifying from a 3D model as long as this is not possible....
I hope this is somewhat clearer,
