Wall / floor construction comparator

[peter_vanorshoven]

Allow for a dialog box which shows you the construction data of different floor types or different wall types next to each other. This way it is more interesting to select the right construction, and one can easily sort out double uses. Idealy, it would allow to compare also different parameters and values (insulation, ...) of the construction. In short, something as the HP-website for pc's but now for walls and floors.

Perhaps just being able to schedule the interior components of walls would solve this?

[peter_vanorshoven]

Nope,

I want it to be interactive, at the moment we're modelling. And most of all, I want it with a section of each of the elements we compare. In the end I want it to be able to tell the model that all floors / walls of type A have to be replaced with an instance of wall B...

That seems complicated for little return.

I would be happy with seeing wall composition in schedule AND live dimensionned section or plan view in the schedule.

To do so, I think you can best use a legend where you place the elements next to each other?

Keep in mind that legend component walls cannot be dimensionned and do not automatically list their component thicknesses and identities.
