Room Finish Legend

[Ramon PG]

How do you make yours? The old one is not reliable. 

Can it be automated so that it reads the "keys" from the Finish Schedule?

Or do you use the Graphic Legends?

Hi Ramon, can you clarify what you mean when you say the current one is "not reliable?"

 

Room Finish improvements are on our feature roadmap, so any thoughts/opinions you'd like to share would be very helpful to the team.

 

Thanks in advance for any input you'd like to provide.

Thanks for the reply and sorry for the confusion.

 

The "old one" (from Create Rm Finish Legend menu) does pick up legend items when placed in the drawing, but only the first time.

 

As to suggestions... Can it be automated so that it reads the "keys" and descriptions from the Finish Schedule? Sometimes changes are made to the Room Finish Schedule and the Legend will not pick it up even if you use the "Recalculate" button because it is a Worksheet Image, I suppose.

Thanks for the quick reply, Ramon.

 

The current workflow requires you to run the command again to receive an updated legend. This is an area that we can clearly do better with (it has worked this way for a long time) and it is under active review for improvements in a future version.

 

I hope this helps.

That small improvement can save lots of headaches bc all the other worksheets will update before printing final construction documents, but not that one.

 

Thanks for the reply.
