I am having difficulty understanding how to use keyscheduling. I have a printed out work-through from AUGI CAD Camp - Chicago (Oct 14, 200 but it is not clear on how to address what I am having trouble with. I found a way to schedule windows and doors in the same schedule. The answer was simple enough... just make your windows using the Door template! Assign your parameters to your windows, save each type. Same with Doors. This has proved successful when scheduling them, but I am having one hang-up. I have created seperate schedules of the 'Door & Window Schedule'. This way we can show a count of how many doors have Closers, Seals, Latches, Hinges, Motors, and Misc. information (each it's own schedule). We also use individual schedules to list Qty./Type (letter)/Description for Door/Window Type, Frame Type, Doo/Window Finish, and Frame Finish. So that was pretty cool when I figured it out. But here's the hang-up. Those schedules I have created for hardware are also seeing my windows as well; even though I do not have those parameters assigned to the windows themselves; they show up as an extra row with blank entries and a quantity. If I delete the row I delete the windows. Is there some way to fix this? Also, we wish to create a schedule that cross-references the number of different combinations of door hardware. In AutoCAD we could do this by creating a table/schedule that had listed vertically the names of the abbreviated call-outs for the type of hardware (i.e., closers would be listed as CLOSER-01, CLOSER-02; latches as Mortise-01, Mortise-02, Push-Pull) across the top of the schedule and along the left (listed horizontally) we would create a letter that we could assign for each combination of hardware that we had referenced in the independant hardware schedules above. The graphical representation for the schedule is simply a dot within the x-y boxes that the grid composed itself of. We did this for a 'Harware' entry on our 'Door & Window Schedule'. We also have an entry for each door/window called 'Elev. Type' which shows a letter for each graphical representation of the door/window it coorilates with. If this is all confusing, I'm sorry; I will try attaching some files as well to help clear this all up. Can I use a Key Schedule to show what I am wanting instead? I can't seem to understand how to do the Key Scheduling either. If it helps, here are the parameters I am working with for my doors & windows: PDL Door 1 - Brown Text - Seals (Type) W-Seal (for Value) Text - Seal Description (Type) Weather Seal (for Value) Text - Motors (Type) None (for Value) Text - Motor description (Type) - (for Value) Text - Misc. (Type) None (for Value) Text - Misc. description (Type) - (for Value) Text - Latches (Type) Mortise-01 (for Value) Text - Latches description (Type) - Lengthy details (for Value) Text - Hinges (Type) Ballbearing (for Value) Text - Hinge Description (Type) Lengthy details (for Value) Text - Closers (Type) Closer-01 (for Value) Text - Closer Description (Type) Lengthy details (for Value) Text - Hardware Letter (Type; should this be instance instead?) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Frame Type Letter (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Frame Finish Letter (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Elevation Type (Type) blank entry; assign number for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Door/Window Type (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Door/Window Finish (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Materials and Finish - Frame Type (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Frame Finish (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Door/Window Type (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Door/Window Finish (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Dimensions - Thickness (meaning panel) Dimensions - Door/Window Width Dimensions - Door/Window Height And for Windows Text - Hardware Letter (Type; should this be instance instead?) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Frame Type Letter (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Frame Finish Letter (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Elevation Type (Type) blank entry; assign number for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Door/Window Type (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Text - Door/Window Finish (Type) blank entry; assign letter for this in project itself (for Value) Materials and Finish - Frame Type (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Frame Finish (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Door/Window Type (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Materials and Finish - Door/Window Finish (Type) Lengthy description (for Value) Dimensions - Sill Heigh Dimensions - Rough Opening Sill Height Dimensions - Glass Width Dimensions - Door/Window Width Dimensions - Rough Width Dimensions - Door/Window Height Dimensions - Rough Height
