Title: The Ultimate Door Schedule in AutoCAD® Architecture
Instructor: Paul Aubin
Course Description: Schedules have been around for a while. But have you bothered to look at all they can really do? Most likely your door schedule currently reports the size and number automatically and almost everything else is just type-in text. It is time to explore those Property Sets and put some more smarts into your schedule. In this class, we will start by reverse engineering the door-number-based-on-room-number solution in the out-of-the-box offering. Next we will add classifications to filter the schedule selection, add material properties to show door and frame materials automatically, add anchor properties with formulas to automatically report the correct fire rating, and explore list definitions to keep input confined to an "approved" selection of choices. We will finish off by wrapping everything up in a nice Tool Palette tool. You spend a lot of time placing doors. Shouldn't they start giving you back a little something?
