Door leaf sizes in schedules

[Anonymous]

Having Problems with door markers and trying to keep things inline with Australian standard of drafting.

For example. I’m putting a 720 internal door into a job. in Australia the 720 relates to the leaf size of a door. to get a leaf size of 720 I need to make the door 760.. due to reveals etc… The door marker allows me to pick the leaf size for the width marker which is perfect for plan.. But when I run a schedule for my doors it still recognizes the door as a 760… am I able to make the schedule recognize the leaf sizes? Instead of the actual “wall hole width”

A mind-boggling array of data can be included in the schedule. You'll want to add fields similar to those shown in the screenshot attached.

Note, though, that some doors/windows have multiple leafs / sashes and then additional parameters are required to list all of them...and those fields will display blanks for the doors / windows with fewer leafs / sashes. Worse, some library parts may use completely different parameter names for things - so you may not get the results you want all in the same row / column...

cheers for that i'm starting to like this program more and more this week. appreciate the speed in which the members here are able to offer help and advice

will that be a global setting for all my doors? or i have to select each door and pick leaf for them?

also am i able to tell it what doors i want in the schedule? say, if i only wanted external doors in it?

You're welcome.

You can create as many schedules as you want - they are just database queries that select elements based on criteria and display selected fields in the format you describe.

The settings will apply to all doors filtered by the schedule.

In the screenshot, you'll see the Criteria at the top left. That schedule filters all doors that have an ID that is set to anything other than blank. Explore the criteria options, and the help pages, and just try things out. 😉
