Hi Mike,
It is a strange trick. You want to have the check shown in the screenshot for "Show uniform items as a single entry" to collapse similar walls into one row.
But, if you have the length field sorted (up or down arrow in the Scheme), then all walls for the same composite will NOT be grouped - rather only walls of the same length. Remove the sorting arrow as shown in the screenshot and you will get a single row summing the lengths for all walls of a particular fill.
If you only want certain walls, add those criteria to your filter.
If you want a grand total of wall length, click to get the sigma in the schedule fields list.
Note that you can schedule the reference line, the center line, or the opposite side of the wall for length calcs. For example, if two walls join as an "L", with the reference line on the outside, that length will be greater than the inside (opposite ref line) length. So, depends on what you ultimately want to schedule.
Cheers,
Karl
