Need to be able to Schedule Stacked Walls as a whole

Need to be able to Schedule Stacked Walls as a whole

I need to be able to either schedule stacked walls as a whole - or be able to group the individual basic wall types by which stacked wall they are in. 

 

For instance, I am trying to pull linear footage of exterior walls, many of which are stacked walls. My wall schedule shows all the individual walls as separate elements and so the total length of walls is completely off the charts. 

 

When I select the walls in the base model and go to filter - the stacked walls show as a separate category - I wish I could schedule this make believe "Stacked Wall" category it shows. 

 

I also wish I could make a view filter for stacked walls so I can quickly see where I'm going to have to investigate my quantities further.

I use stacked walls regularly and want to apply instance parameter to them for quantity take off and filtering purposes, but as of now they are treated as separate elements that are "grouped" together. I want to suggest that stacked walls could maybe combined into a single element or at least be able to apply parameters to them instead of applying parameters to the separate components of the stacked wall.

Stacked walls don't schedules, only their subwalls do. That's not very useful.

"When you create a wall schedule, the vertically stacked wall does not schedule, but its subwalls do."

 

Give us the ability to create a schedule for "stacked walls" so that we can manage, present and count the stacked walls as units separated from the subwalls. This is a parent/child relationship, it's ridiculous that we can only obtain information about the children, but not the parents.
