I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible for Revit to grab the image that's loaded in the Material Library and add it to the Schedule - I'm currently adding the images using the "Manage Images" tool but this seems to be double work when I've already uploaded the images in to the library.

I don't believe this is possible for a Material Take Off. You can put images into manually created Headers in a schedule, see Revit 2014 Schedules Tips (http://revitclinic.typepad.com/my_weblog/2013/04/revit-2014-schedules-tips.html), you can also show preview images of many types of Families in Schedule, see About Creating Schedules with Images (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/Revit-DocumentPresent/files/GUID-8E04BA12-FBAB-4210-86CB-2C616EE5110E-htm.html)

Thanks Duncan, I guess it's not that intuitive...yet... I'll just keep adding them manually on to the Schedule using "manage images"
