Costs/SF Costs/Total

On interactive schedules is anyone using Costs/SF or Costs/Total features in scheme settings ?

If so perhaps can you post a link for tutorial or video aid ?

Many thanks.....

Michael,

This is a bit tedious to solve, but not impossible!
You must ADD some code to GDL script:
1. OPEN your Zone stamp object....Select the Zone and use Ctrl+Shift+O (PC)
2. In PARAMETERS window check that there is a variable named "ROOM_AREA" (see picture Room Area - Cost_01)

2a. In PARAMETERS window check that there are variables named "gs_list_cost" and "gs_list_cost_m2" (see picture Room Area - Cost_02)

3. Pick the button located right of Master and write the yellow marked text
4. 3. Pick the button located right of Parameter and write the yellow marked text (see picture Room Area - Cost_03).
5. Close the main GDL window and SAVE when asked to do it.

Open Zone Dialog Settings (one at one) and input the Cost/SF (see picture Room Area - Cost_04.jpg). Then select menu Design / Update Zones...

Open your Schedule and you will see ROOM COSTS (picture Room Area - Cost_05.jpg).

Good work!

andro55 :

Thank you kindly for your gracious assistance.
I believe I have followed instructions explicitly, however I arrive short of a "TOTAL"

I will send the same five (5) screen shots back thru that you sent previously.
Perhaps you can catch the error.

Thanks again
