Schedules - Family & Type Total Length

[gvluisi]

Hello,

So I have my Wall Mat'l sched. sorted by Fam. & type but the length for each type dissapears when Itemize every instance is Unchecked. My hopes for this schedule is to have a total length for each Family and Type. The Material Area calculates totals for each type, why not the length? Under formatting, when length is selected, calculate totals is greyed out. What are your thoughts/ suggestions.

My apologies for this post. I have been reading way too much on this and other sites that I failed to see the post just 7 entries below mine. The same problem. Good Night Irene

Probably has to do with the fact that the length is an instance parameter, and every instance is different (usually) and therefore will not display a value in the schedule unless every instance is itemized. And I guess Revit won't calculate a total of a field in which nothing is displayed.
