The 4.0.9 Release included Improvements and Bug fixes. The purpose of this release is to continue the development and provide product replacement for Legacy SheetMetal and Fabshop products.
Improvements and New Features
1. Variable Assemblies
User Guide Article on /wiki/spaces/TRAIN/pages/535331491.
2. Reload Takeoff Data to saved report
Added the ability to select a saved excel report and reload the takeoff data into it. This will allow the user to keep the manually input values (G&A tab, Equipment Quotes, etc) while reloading the takeoff items in the report.
- Select the saved report
- Click the Reload button above
** It is recommended to make a duplicate of your saved report before reloading. If the values are not what is expected it is best to have a previous copy to compare.
- Right click the saved report
- Choose duplicate
- Give the duplicate a name and save
3. Breakout Assemblies on Detail tab in Excel
The Detail Tab that was added in Duct 4.0.7 release now has a check box at the top to breakout the assembly items. Allowing you to accumulate all items now. If this box is unchecked, you will not see the contents of the assemblies on this sheet, only the name of the assembly.
4. Color by Pressure Class
5. Global Edit Labor Rates in Takeoff
6. Export and Import all Data File Pricing
