How does everyone here schedule Storefront?  We are using it more and more  but my office mates and myself are not sure about the best way to make schedules for it.  Do you typically show elevations of it like windows?  It tags as a wall so it does not work in our window schedules.  Any examples or screen shots would be appreciated.

 Thank you,

I would do a legend sheet of each type storefront condition, and give it a symbol to each diffrent condition, and list a material schdule on the same sheet if you want to get real detail on B.O.M counts and glass and mullion counts.

Our office does the same.  I elevate the building and fine tune a view template to turn geometry off leaving only the storefront in the project visible.  Then use dependant views to put on the sheet.  I find using the actual storefront implemented in the building to be of the upmost importance in order to maintain coordination between the project and type legends.  This is an alternative to re-creating elements in a type legends phase and having to duplicate actions.

I then designed a multi category tag to look identical to our window tags.  The multi category tag uses the instance 'mark' value.  This combined with the storefront elevations creates a successful documentation of storefront.
