Column Surface Tagging & Property Splits

Gerry Leonor — Thu, 07 Jul 2022 04:41:03 GMT

We've been dipping our toes into 'smarter' Surface call ups. Recently we've found a way to label our walls, roofs, slabs & beams where the codes in the Surface get called up using the Property Manager & associative labels.

This, however, doesn't work with Columns.

Not sure why it's not working.

Any help is appreciated.

found the fix to it...

for posterity's sake, the issue to this was that the Classification that these orange/blue columns belonged to was "Discrete Accessory". this Class didn't have the Properties associated to it in the Classification Manager.

Have added them to it now.

Found the problem when I realised that i was able to tag structural columns properly because their Class was set to "Column" & had the Properties associated to it.
