Finish Schedule?

Anonymous
Not applicable
For the doors and windows, I've used the lists or schedules in the navigator (and changed up the scheme settings a bit to reflect the info I want to show).

I don't see an option for finishes, though? I've created zones for each space I wish to list in the finish schedule (and each space for which I wish to create interior elevations, but that's another thread), but I can't find the schedule that this generates.

Zones do generate a finish schedule, no? What would I look under to get a schedule that's close to a finish schedule, that I can adapt for my purposes? Can I build a finish schedule?

(the categories of info I'm looking to show in a schedule are: room name, floor finish, n/s/e/w wall finishes, ceiling finish, ceiling height, base molding, crown molding, notes/remarks, and.... a couple other things I'm probly forgetting)

Thank you....

bump........

I still haven't figured this out, and may be desperate enough to make someone cookies if they can tell me how to do this.

Is my question unclear?

The Zones list/label parameters show N/S/E/W wall and ceiling materials, and there are several user-defined fields immediately underneath it, which I'm thinking are schedule-related fields. I don't know how to change the "names" of the user-defined fields. I don't know how to make a good zone stamp with all the info I'm looking for (per the other "finish schedule" thread).

Anyone? Please? Cookies may be in your future...

Thanks.
Probably hasn't been answered since it's a little involved (but not difficult). Surprising that there isn't a template for a finish schedule out of the box, but, oh well.

In a nutshell, you can select a zone, and "open object". This will bring up the list of parameters, which you can change, or add new parameters. (Probably text type). Then save the zone object to a new name so you don't overwrite your original. (You'll be prompted to save when you exit the object.)

Then the finish schedule is just a matter of creating a "scheme" that using the zone object as the criterion for selection. You add the parameters to the schedule in the same way that you'd add the "width" parameter to a door schedule. So, basically just like a door or window schedule, except that you're selecting zones rather than doors or windows through the element type in the "Criteria" area. You can change any of the parameter names in the scheme "fields" area, under "Scheme Settings".

Hopefully, that will get you started. It's actually pretty easy. (The second time.)

Here-- THIS may help.

Yay!

It was rather more complicated than you described, but just knowing it was possible led me to ferret out all the properties and fields and parameters that weren't stock in the Scheme Settings (huh?).

But, now I have a rockin' finish schedule!

Thank you very very much.

Don't forget to add July 5, 2008 to your Finnish Schedule:

Excellent. Why don't you post a screen shot or two of your settings so others can benefit.

Well, to finish well in Finland seems to require the superior "Estonian Carry" Setting.
See if you can duplicate these settings.

I'm not even quite sure what I'm looking at, or if I want to know.
