In version 20 you can add section, plan and 3D previews of the 3D elements (i.e. not for 2D fills) right there in the schedule.
Barry.
Thanks in advance!

I use a pre-modeled assembly of Wall Types that can be pasted into the project as a Wall Legend.
The idea being to have a Wall Legend in large scale detail with full annotation, and the Walls of the Floor Plans as simple 2-line walls with a corresponding Wall Tag.

However if you are just doing an index where you want to show the preview and the name then just tick the 'Merge Uniform Items' when you open the schedule.
You can include some fields like quantity (total number of walls) and they should all still list as one item - as you are not listing any unique information.
But as soon as you try to schedule unique information (such as length or height) then you will start getting multiple items again if these values differ.

Sorry for the maybe dumb questions, still a newbie in AC.

In AC21UK (5010) I am finding using labels for schedule view annotation generally crashes the prog. Adding a description in Cats & Props doesn't allow line breaks, so you can't list the skins there line by line.
In a ideal world I would be using the Axonometric view in the schedule and either labelling with a description or with numbers linked to keynotes but I can't seem to do either.

Steve, How are you annotating your detailed wall type views?

If I understand the question correctly, my Wall Types Legend is not a schedule. It's just a saved View of some Walls with Labels.
