schedule from fills in elevation?

[Anonymous]

I've managed to develop schedules from fills in plan, but I can't make the schedule recognize fills in elevation. I was hoping to be able to use this to develop a keynote sorta thing... Am I out of luck?

Sorry, but you're out of luck.

Archicad schedules can only pick up 3D elements or elements drawn in plan.

OK, then..... can I make my windows/doors display their labels in elevation as well as plan?

[TomWaltz]

Yep.

In elevation, select the window/door and turn on the "Show Label" parameter.

Make sure the layer for your labels is turned on too. That one gets a lot of people.

You could take and copy your placed elevation fills and then paste them into one of your floor plan views on a different story and or a separate layer. Its a work around but now the schedule should be able to pick up the elevation fills.

Yeah... I basically just created a bunch of random fills on my plan to create a schedule, and placed a bunch of labels on the elevation to correspond, and will just hope that I don't mis-number something.

Thanks guys...

Jocelyn,
I can't help wondering why you are relying on fills? What is the information they represent?
