Pulling Zone Area Info for Title Blocks

Aaron Bourgoin

Has anyone created a title block that can pull area values from gross area zones and insert them into fields on a title block Master?

Hi Aaron,

Hope you're staying warm up there!

I think a placed schedule is the only way to get areas like that. To get things formatted as shown in your screenshot might be easier done sort of manually, with a placed schedule for each number, cropped to show just the result for that story.

Maybe there's another way...

Cheers,

Aaron,
I've done this with schedules placed in my templates.
Karl, it would be nice if we could link to a schedule value like you can have a hyperlink in excel files. Is this not possible?

Not that I know of...in the sense of a live link...

Maybe someone else has an idea?
