Door/Window Schedules - Merging Uniform Items

Anonymous — Wed, 08 Aug 2018 09:39:17 GMT

Hi,
We are trying to merge unifrom Doors by checking the box "Merge Uniform Items" in the Scheme settings. However, when we include the Full Element ID (e.g. D-01) and the Zone Name, this merge function doesnt seem to work. It works only when we remove the Element ID and Zone Name. However we need those options on the schedule. Is there a way around this?
Thank you in advance.

If the ID and zone are different, then you will end up with a list of similar IDs and Zone grouped together,

Merge Uniform Items does exactly that: merges everything from your list of parameters that is the same and groups them together. So any parameters that are different, will result in more groups.

Thank you Erwin,
Is there a better way to merge same (type of) doors, and keep Zones (for location) and Element ID (for door number) in the schedule?

If you want to show multiple results in one field of a schedule then I do not think that is possible.
