Furniture Schedule - Merging objects

Zendrix
Expert

Hi!

So, i have some furniture in my project. Imagine a 3 piece tall cabinets which are supposed to be read as 1 entity. I labeled each of the 3 as "A09", as in "closet 09" (i named them "a,b and c" for the purpose of this post). So i have 3 closet objects that have the same ID. When i do a schedule, i get the 2d plan and section preview independently.

 

Is there a way to join those 3 cabinets into one 2d and section view? What is the best workflow?

Also, is there a "2d elevation view" parameter to put in the schedule?

 

Cheers,

Z

You could select all 3 objects and then save them as a new object, but you would lose all parametric control and it would basically be a static object.

If you get into GDL scripting, then that is a different matter as you can create a master object that calls in the separate parts, but that is much easier said than done.
