You have to give your empty doors a unique id, say: Empt-11, ect.
Then filter out that that typ prefix. ie. Empt or whatever you choose as your empty door prefix.

Under Criteria/Door LIst, you can add additional parameters to exclude certain IDs, for example. Then just change the ID to something excluded and those doors will vanish from the schedule.

Or, something that is included in id.
As shown as my Existing (X) window and Proposed (N) window schedules.
But mine is crude I think. Others may have better ways of doing this.

Modify that field to:

"Element ID" does not contain XYZorwhatever

Then select all elements you do not want listed and set their IDs to XYZorwhatever.

Thanks to all, but I still can't find the way to filter and remove the empty door, I might be doing something wron, I am trying to place the "does not contain" but I don't get the results, I read the calculation guide and AC help but it doesn't say much, this is what I get,
I apreciatte your help,
Thanks!

Do it like you see in the image.
It is not that you type "empty" in the Value field of the ID.

Your current criteria means that:

If the Element is a Door
and the text written in its Element ID field in its Settings Dialog or in the Info Box is both "empty" and "does not contain", then the Door should be listed.
This of course will return zero results because the Element ID of and Door cannot be "empty" and "does not contain" at the same time.

What you should do with the setting I gave you is select all Doors you want listed, go to the settings dialog and delete everything from its Element ID field. Then its Element ID field will be empty (no string or zero string).

If you want all Door except the ones with the empty Element ID then the criterion should be
"Element ID" "is not".

Then Doors with a zero-string ID will not be listed, all other Doors will be.

[Laszlo Nagy]

This is another way of doing it.
Here you say that those Doors the name of which is not "Empty Door" will be listed.

Thank you Laszlo, I got it,
The thing is that is a little bit confusing if you're not used to use this "criterias" I will study more deeply in the schedules and lists,
Thanks again!

I have another question,
After having the right list, I placed it in the layout but the list is very long,
How do I make it so the list breaks in 2 or 3 pieces and put it in the layout?
Thanks again,
