Paint vs Material in schedules

If I have a wall with an interior finish layer of Plywood but then I partially split the face and  paint it as Gypsum Board for example, will the panted area be subtracted from the Plywood quantity take off or will I have both the whole Plywood and the Gypsum board? 

I suspect its the latter?  Is there another way of spliting a wall finish for material take offs other than using parts and spliting them?

Splitting the face and applying paint will give you as you said "the whole Plywood and the Gypsum board"

If you Edit Type for the wall,  split the layer and assign a material then you will get a different result

Pull the "Material: As Paint" Parameter into the Schedule.

Paint both areas with different materials: original and paint.

So another way is to schedule just the paint. Probably this is how its done in a conceptual stage for early estimate?
