Resize / rename elements in schedule

Gage Bantiles
Contributor

Is it possible to resize or rename elements in the schedule? (I.e. Walls, beams, columns, etc.). This would save a ton of time versus having to change the data of elements individually or by groups. I've read that this could be done in previous versions of Archicad.

I've attached a screenshot highlighting the elements attempting to change. Appreciate any suggestions.

The ID you should be able to edit just like any other text.

The length you will not be able to change because you are affecting the physical length of the beam.

Archicad does not know if you want to extend the start, the end or both ends and how will this affect connections.
