Is there a way to create a 'Project Information' schedule or index using Properties so as to automate or simplify listing out building code / project information? I have created various properties with option selections, for instance one property is 'Type of Construction.' I would like a standardized list of relevant project data items which can be easily modified from within AC, an example is shown in the attachment. The issue I have is that a schedule requires selection criteria but there is no appropriate criteria. I can make a list using the Project Info but that solution does not offer a drop-down option list. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Scott
Solved! Go to Solution.

I think project information cannot be scheduled based on poperties as it is, but maybe there is a workaround: you could create a placeholder as a cube morph classified as element building proxy, place it out of the views scope and attach those custom properties to be listed.
That could be in a wish list for futue Archicad versions anyway.

Thank you Ricardo, this workaround is amazing. The only issue I had was that some placed 2D objects had the Classification of Building Element Proxy adding extra irrelevant columns to the schedule. Otherwise this is great, thank you so much. Hopefully Graphisoft can adopt an easy way to input and output project data. Scott

You are welcome,
You could choose any of the existing Archicad classifications or even create a new one just for that. Classifications can be edited to add new branches or leaves within the Classification Manager.
