View Full Version : Scheduling Wall Sweeps built into Walls

We have a project trying to get area takeoffs of wall sweeps. We've been able to make a work-around for getting the area of wall sweeps, but it's not picking up those that are actually built into the wall, only those being placed using the Wall Sweep tool.

We've had to get add a type parameter for the sweep height in walls and then multiply that by the length of the wall to get the area. Are we missing something? Shouldn't you be able to schedule ALL wall sweeps the same way? Not have two schedules you need to add together.

Also, odd bug in 2010 vs 2009 - you cannot select the integral wall sweep by itself in 2010, but could in 2009.

Scheduling Wall Sweeps:

The answer is unfortunately "Not possible".

This is a known issue and has been a Wishlist item for some time now.

The Factory needs to respond, as this is a major "BIM" breakdown of the software.

Perhaps RAC 2011 will fix this. LOL.

cheers.........
