Same HEad Height in Schedule

[Anonymous]

Hi Guys.

The way my boss likes to do his Window Schedules- as well as Door Schedules is to Line elevations of all of the windows up accross the sheet with the info below.
I got that, but he would like to see all of the Windows as they are in the elevation in the wall.
For instance all of them that have a 6-8 head height be level at the top and the ones that do not fall at what ever height they do in the wall.
With this scheduling- all the windows just center them selves along the middle of their cells in the Chart?

Any Ideas?
Does anyone even know what I mean? I am certainly not paid for my clear explanations of anything ....

Jess I don't know if this will help but I have never used the scheduling part of AC for doors and windows. I do an elevation view of the wall which contains the window(s) or door(s) I need and Marquee them, copy and paste onto an empty story. I then have a floor line which I add dimensions to, etc.

I find I have much more control on the look of the schedule this way although I realize I am forfeiting all of the automatic updating etc and there is more work involved. I do mostly residential though so this is not a large problem for me.

If you want to see a sample send me a private email as they are little large to post on the forum.

For what it's worth.
Cheers,

Hi Jess,
Try doing part of it out of the schedule and the elevations just 2D drawing. The elevations generated in the schedule will not only be misaligned, but they may not even be all at the same scale.
You can try to generate all information (minus the elevation) using the schedule. On the layout sheet, place appropriate elevations of your windows.
