Trying to drag and drop Search Sets into the Quantification Workbook but no luck.

I contacted a colleague to help me automate quantification from a federated model in Navisworks Manage.

He was able to drag and drop a saved and selected Search Set into a quantification group. We went through it step by step so I could replicate his progress. 

 

The icon that appeared for me when dragging the Search Set into an item/group was a red circle with a line through it, indicating this was not possible. However, when my colleague did the same thing, it worked perfectly.

 

We are working on the same model file and followed the same steps.

 

The only thing I can think of is that there is some setting holding me back from completing this process.

 

Any help or suggestions would be received gratefully!

 

Thanks.

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply. I have found similar workarounds, it is unfortunate that this was not fixed, even after having a call with an Autodesk agent.

They walked me through other ways to quantify items with the "Find Items" function, then quantifying items through selection tree or as you have described, however, the drag & drop option was never fixed as it was intended to work.
