How can I fabricate a calculated formula that subtracts door widths from wall lengths? I want to automatically estimate the linear feet for Baseboard trim. I am on Revit 2009.

How can I add fields from window and door schedules to the little box circled in the picture?

You could always run a wall sweep where you require base and utlize a wall sweeps schedule to get the desired lengths. This will account for openings. Good luck

Just do a new Schedule, of type Wall Sweeps. This only counts sweeps that you add to the wall, not 'embedded' sweeps in the wall type.

So--to clarify:

Hosted Wall Sweeps and in-place sweeps are "schedule-able"
but not Sweep Profiles added to Wall structure?

I also saw a category for Slab Edges. Anyone used this?
Thought from previous posts that was not possible?
