Does having design options affect the creation of an Area Schedule?
My project has 2 levels (1st and 2nd floor), each level has two design options. The Area that I want the schedule to return is identical for each of the options on a single level (ie. since this is an addition, I want to schedule the additonal area of each level, the design option only involves a wall movement or a different type of ceiling with in the added area). When I created my Area Schedule, no values were created. When I create my Area Plan I chose the level I wanted and the area type (ie. gross) I wanted. Now I know, under view properties for the area plan I can assign a design option specifically to it. I can also do the same thing for my Area schedule. I made sure that the design option applying to each of the Area plans were identical to those for the Area Schedule, with no values being returned in the schedule.
So is my schedule hung up on design options (could the Area plan & Schedule just call for "automatic" or is it a "filter" issue?
I'd post a file but the system doesn't seem to let me do so. Thanks in advance.
