Autodesk Takeoff - Allow annotations and non-takeoff markups on sheets

Autodesk Takeoff - Allow annotations and non-takeoff markups on sheets

There is currently no way to add simple annotations — like text notes, clouds, or arrows — in Autodesk Takeoff. Every drawing element must be tied to a takeoff type, which creates clutter and confusion for things that are meant to be informational only.

 

Request:

  • Add a separate annotation toolset for:

    • Text labels

    • Shapes (e.g., revision clouds)

    • Arrows or highlights

  • Keep annotations visually distinct from takeoffs

  • Let them be exported with the sheet if desired

 

This would help users flag coordination issues, note assumptions, or communicate visually without bloating the takeoff database.
