Matthias Sch. Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) - Create a device with the device builder tool - Give it a name (for example: USB Hub) - Duplicate the device - Open ConnectCAD > Documentation > * Device Report Then you see one line (because it's the same device). But the QTY field stays at "1" but instead the fields height/width/depth/power/weight are summed up. See attached screenshot. (There you see an example with a Term Panel, but it's the same behaviour with all devices). I found a workaround for my use case. But still i think it's confusing in a default template to sum up dimensions? 🙂 If somebody needs the workaround: - ConnectCAD > Documentation > All Layers Device Report - View > Database Headers = ON - Row 3: Right Click > Summarize Items = OFF for all columns except Name, Make and Model - Row 3: Right Click > Sum Values = OFF for all columns except Qty Edited October 2, 2020 by Matthias Sch.

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Conrad Preen Posted October 5, 2020 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 5, 2020 Thanks Matt, We'll check on that. In my opinion we (Vectorworks) shouldn't be trying to second-guess the kind of analysis you the designers want. Summarize and Sum Values are things you'll probably want to set for your own purposes.
