Getting elements list from an object

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone!

I finally managed to create the object you can see in the image. I mean the panels that cover the walls of the building.

This cladding is composed by panels and substructure. My question is: Is it possible to get a list or quantify how many elements of each type are there (panels/aluminium profiles...)? The goal is to make it easy to get a budget of the cladding system.

Thanks!!

It's strange,
you say that with print the number of panels is correct during execution,
but what about the parameter?
if it stays at 0 you must go to parameter script and type:
parameters panels=panels
could it be?

PARAMETERS panels=vert_panels*horz_panels
