schedule woes

[Anonymous]

Hey all archicadders, I have just tried to use a listing routine from 7.0 in 8.1, I have had some limited success. On my doors in 7.0 I had doors with no ID would not show up on the schedule. I cannot seem to find such a device on 8.1? I now have all of my arched openings showing up on my door schedule. Anybody have any ideas, that aren't too time consuming?

There's an option for this under Calculate -> Set Up List Schemes... and under the Elements tab you have the option to Skip Elements without an associative label (or ...an empty ID field)

Hope this helps.

This doesn't seem to work with the interactive scheduler. I couldn't find my list scheme listed in the ones to alter. Do I need to load it somewhere? It is loaded in the interactive scheduler, because I see a schedule, but it has a bunch of doors I do not want to see.

How do I get my openings not to show up in my schedule!!!!!!!!!!

Shae,
Is your schedule grayes out?If so, you may not be able to apply changes from your "set up list schemes" on it s elements tab. In AC hit the show all layers (or at least the layers with walls and windows on them and make sure they are not locked).
On the right of this tab scroll down to the AC-8_US section and go though the list schemes you want to have checked off the "do not show elements with empty IDs" for each scheme you want this to apply to. click OK. You may get some warnings, but whennext you go to you I.S. preview window your schedules should now not show those with empty I.D.s
Hope this helps

It doesn't work because my list is not shown to check. It isn't greyed out, it isn't there. But it is there when I open up my scheduler preview.

In the Schedule Setting dialogue box under Calculate, I.S., did you import your settings or browse to find where in 7.0 you have your I.S. files?
See Karl's posts on this subject.

yes. I did import it, that is how I have a schedule. When I go to the set up list schemes it doesnt show, so that I can check that stupid radio button. Whose idea was it to not include that radio button on the schedule settings like it was in 7.0?

Shae,
Take a deep breath.
When you go to "Set up List schemes", on the right hand side of the box where it says "available List schemes" what is it set on?

If it is set on "basic" or and you are in the defualt settings, the settings are locked and grayed out.
Check that it is set on "element list set"

You can send a file privately if you still have trouble.

Thanks, Erika! I have called my reseller, he tells me that it has something to do with using 7.0 window and door openings in an 8.0 project. Not sure if he is right, but that is what I am going with here. My understanding is that, that list should show up to be edited in this menu. It does not show up.?????? I looked as you suggested and on the left I have default and us_db basic showing. I clicked on element in the default one, but shouldn't I be looking for my list like"vsi door schedule" and "vsi window schedule." Those lists are not there. I see the default archicad lists but not mine........Any ideas? One more question. 8 thousand games of free cell at work
