Graphic legend - symbols - "count" function

[StefanoT]

Hi everyone,

I am using the new graphic legend tool for a booklet representing prefab facade elements of a building.

Any prefab element is a symbol (hybrid 3d/2d) with an attached record.

Within the graphic legend cell, I would like to insert a text (dynamic text of a graphic legend field) showing the overall amount (=count function) of each prefab element (=symbols).

It seems to me it is not possible to call the "count" function via dynamic text definition.

Any idea/suggestion on how to do that? (e.g. showing how many times the item shown in a graphic legend cell - in window reports / wall type reports / symbol reports / etc.- is used in the drawing/file and/or within the selected criteria).

The Count Function in Dynamic Text works exactly for what you are trying to do.

Thanks, and damn localised/translated versions 🙂 (I was searching for "count" as I've been doing till now... but since VW2023 it seems "count" is translated in my localised version)

Would it be possible that we can set a filter for the count (or for any function/graphic legend). So that it only counts the fixtures that are on a specific layer. As we can with Instrument schedule.

 

Kind regards,
