rkraybill Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 We are working with the Room Finish Schedule report feature for the first time. I am generally comfortable with how it works and see some promise in it, but have one issue. How do I sort rows to coincide with room numbers (or sort by room name, etc)? Quote Link to comment
rkraybill Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 There may be other ways to do this, but for the benefit of others here is what I discovered: The order of rooms within the Room Finish Schedule is determined by the order of the spaces in the drawing. Sending a space backwards or forwards (see "Send" under the "Modify" menu) will change that space's place in the finish schedule accordingly. Note: as with any other changes, you will not see the change in order until you select the "recalculate" option on the finish schedule. Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Just curious. What happens if you select all the spaces and send all to front? do they then rank alpha/numeric? -B Quote Link to comment
James Russell Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I might be misunderstanding the question but can't you just change the sorting style on the worksheet itself? See this article for more info: http://kbase.vectorworks.net/questions/465/Different+ways+to+organize+column+data+in+a+worksheet If that's not it feel free to attach a basic example and I'm sure we'll all have a look.

rkraybill Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 James Russell - that's it - thanks. Dragging the sort function to the column to be sorted was the part that I had missed. Quote Link to comment
