NoAskBreakInheritance


Boolean value that allows selecting whether a confirmation box should be displayed asking the user to confirm an Inheritance Break. Checking the box (true) will cause the confirmation box not to appear. Unchecking the box (false) causes the confirmation box to appear. This boolean value is also controlled when a template's advanced properties are edited in the Settings / Notifications window (Figure 1).

To see a confirmation box:

Click on the Estimating tab on the Main Ribbon menu.

Double click on an Estimating template (Figure 2) to show the Template's Properties window

Click on Advanced. 

In the Advanced window (Figure 3), click on the formula cell for the Linear Total takeoff and wait a second

Click on the same cell again. This opens the window asking Editing this property will cause it to no longer be inherited. Do you want to continue?

Click on the Do not ask again box in order not to be asked the question again: Clicking on the Do Not ask again box sets the NoAskBreakInheritance boolean value to true.
