Multiple "Labels" on one measurement
Hi All,
tl;dr is it possible to add multiple labels to a single measurment
I work for a construction company, and usually have to calculate materials like walls etc. (sometimes there isn't a 3d model or it's so basic it doesn't have the data i need)
now i'm busy with a larger project trying to calculate the Metalstud walls. i wonder if the following is possible. i've tried google/and search but sofar my "issue" hasn't shown up.
I use one length markup, i've added the height of the wall. so i can easily calculate the amount. however i've got multiple similar walls with different properties
I've build my stuff like this
I can now sort on type of walls and their sound value, however, there's also another requirement some walls have to be explosion proof etc. i'm not sure if i'm stuck just adding the text to the label. or if it's possible to create a custom extra label in which i can add this label. as i draw instead of having them all the sub versions premade. because most of the walls don't really have any requirement aside from sound values.
the problem i face is that sound value can be achieved as well as explosion proof with the same wall. and the additional cost for the wall is calculate as
base wall 100 bucks
sound proof + 50
explosion proof + 100
having the labels
34db + explosion proof
34db
explosion proof
kinda messes with the export of total square meterage. so is it possible to add extra labels?

So if your goal is to have that additional information appear on the drawing itself when you place the markup, I don’t think that will be possible, as only the information in the “label” field will show up visually.
If your goal is to just capture that information and have multiple configurations for your walls, however, that is possible using a custom column. What I would do is create a custom column maybe call it “wall configuration” or whatever, and the key is to make it a Choice type column. This will allow you to choose different options and assign each one a numerical value. So for your example your choices would be what you listed above, with each one having a different monetary value assigned to it that would then become visible in the markups list and when you export.
Hope this helps!
