Adding Formula in Zone Scheme

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I am currently exploring the use of scheme, especially the zone scheme to get the custom zone list. The techniques is quite manageable.
The question is, Can we create a formulated cell?
For instance, I have list of rooms that are sorted by categories. Then, I want to add a custom column which contents of percentage/ratio of them, which is driven by the calculated area.
Is it possible?

Formulae in cells are not possible (other than the simple SUM totals.
You will need to export you schedule and do the calculations in Excel (or similar).

Thanks Barry,

I thought so, it is only strings in custom text field.
Perhaps I should list it in Wishes forum.

Cheers.

This has been wanted by many people for years.
Although I just did a quick search of the wishes section and didn't find one relating to schedules and calculations.
I'm sure there is at least one there somewhere but feel free to create a new one - I'll vote for it.
