Additional Free Text Column in the Schedule

[369]

Hello,
Is it possible to add an additional column with free text (so that I can enter free text directly in the schedule) for walls and slabs?
I use Archicad 26.

Operating system used: Windows 11 Pro 23H2

Adding a 'Custom Text' field works fine - and you can rename it to what ever you want.

But as Florin Luca suggests, if you are in teamwork, you may need to reserve the element or the schedule (I am not sure how it works exactly either as I don't use teamwork).

Hi!

Oh, sorry — I forgot to give an update! I actually tried reserving the entire file, but it still didn’t work. It feels like something is blocking it; I’m not sure what, but I’ll try to figure it out on my own.

Thanks a lot to everyone!

As I mentioned, I am not sure how teamwork works.

You may need to reserve the layer the element is on.

If someone else has it reserved, can you reserve it as well?

Out of interest, what happens if you select a row and then click either of these buttons.

If it does not take you to the model, then the layer combination in your schedule view settings is wrong.

It needs to include the layer that the element is in.
