    Assign pay item to closed areas

    Is there a way to assign pay items to a selection set of closed areas? The tool seems to only allow the user to pick one object at a time.

    Yes, there is.  You need to select the items first then hit this button.

    I must be doing something wrong in my workflow. Can you show it on JING using the Quantities 4 turorial drawing/?

     

    Hold on, I think I see how it works. I thought you had to use the Closed Area tool for closed poly's but I see now you can use the Apply to Objects tool as well. It just doesn't highlight the selection with hatches like to Closed Area tool does.

    I don't have Jing and this isn't the tutorials drawing.

    It makes me wonder why they have a button for closed areas since the Add to Objects tool does the job, and more efficiently.

    I guess the other one creates a hatch at the same time if someone wants.
