Combined Area in schedule

[noconnorG728Y]

Hello everyone.

Does anyone know how to combine twin, double and single bedroom into an aggregate bedroom area total?

Thank in advance

You could name all the (bed)rooms "bedroom", sort by name, uncheck itemize every instance and use a seperate parameter to specify if it's a single/double... (edit: ...or did you want to show single/double m2 aswell? If the latter more or less do the same check itemize every instance, sort by name also and select footer showing totals only for example, don't forget to set area formatting to calculate totals)...

Instead of renaming the rooms you might do the same by adding a text Project Parameter to rooms category, for instance "room type", then add this as a (hidden) field to sort by instead of by name...

Room schedule example - sorted by additional Project parameter

To combine (or group), they need something in common.  You can add a parameter to indicate Room Type as suggested, or enter a common value to an existing parameter such as Comments and use it to group the schedule.  Also, don't forget to set the Area field to Calculate Totals.
