"Catch-All" Category for Reporting & Support for WDTYPE with Panel Content

"Catch-All" Category for Reporting & Support for WDTYPE with Panel Content

This request is in two parts. The first one is what I'd consider a program shortcoming.

 

1. The program should have a "catch-all" option when pulling schematic component reports. See the image below.

Suggestion within the dropdown of schematic reportsSuggestion within the dropdown of schematic reports

 

This option should pull all schematic data REGARDLESS of the value of WDTYPE. It should also pull data if WDTYPE is null. This would allow for more flexible use of the attribute, as well as make reporting more efficient... If this category option was there, it would allow users to avoid pulling multiple reports (One for each WDTYPE category/value!?! Inefficient!).

 

2. The other idea here is to add support for the WDTYPE attribute on panel footprint symbols. This allows division of categories and better enables use of multiple footprint symbols within AutoCAD Electrical. All Panel reporting should have a dropdown like in the above image as well, with an option for "All" such as the above item.

In addition the drop down list of category's should remember your last choice. Its really annoying having to reselect.
