Length of MEP pipes

TomaszWorkLTD

Hi All,

 

Is there any chance of obtaining the length of MEP pipes? Currently, I am using a balustrade to draw UFH pipes and electric wires, but perhaps it is time for this software to evolve after decades and become a true BIM?

Could someone possibly add a line of code to the new multi-bend pipe to provide a 3D length for schedules?

 

Thanks

Tom

I have another problem. We can use a baluster to have the lengths of the pipes, but our Add-on connecting AC with Google Sheets (for our buyers) is showing each pipe/baluster as lots of segments. There should be separate easy-to-operate flexi pipes and non-flexi pipes tools. One could let us list and export flexi runs and the second would allow us to have a split for straight runs and bends. Please see attached. Thanks
