sill height on window schedule

[TomD.Arch]

How would one add the sill height for windows to the window schedule? I'm quite new to VW, but I'll take a guess (below). I'm reluctant to mess with things for fear of scrambling something!

It seems that the schedule worksheet(?) looks to the "record" for each window for its data. I looked at the .txt file for 'window record' and I see the various categories, but I'm not at all clear on how the record is getting it's data from the window object.

My guess is that one would need to add a line to the window record to 'look up' the sill height (or head height) setting for the given window object. Then a column would be added to the schedule with the correct 'reference' in the database line to include the sill height info from the record.

That's my guess on how it would be done, but I have no idea how to actually do it.

Create a new column in your window schedule and, on the database header row, write =(Window.Elevation). If you are summarizing your schedule, you need to drag a summarize icon on this column as well.
