I'm trying to create a hydrozone map by adding a new ref note division and using areas and custom fields. While working through the process, I discovered a couple issues and requests:
1. In the schedule drawing, I want to display both the hatch symbol and code for the area; however, the code shows up blank. It works if I select only code (see attached).
2. When I select "both", the hatch displays outside the left edge of the schedule.
3. I would like to move the QTY column to the right so that it's second from the right, but I don't see an option for doing that.
4. I would like a "Total" row at the bottom of the schedule that totals the area of all zones.
5. Is there a method for adding a formula in my user field column "% of landscape area"? The formula would be =(QTY/Total QTY)*100 this would display the percentage of total landscape area for that specific zone.

I have a method for automating all of this using AutoCAD fields and tables, but it would be great to be able to do it with Land F/X.
Thanks!
Michael,
Great questions. It would be really helpful if you could actually send in your files through a tech support ticket so we could take a look at what might be going on with the schedule not showing both code and hatch at the same time.

The hatch will land next to the code, so that seems to be functioning properly, but I will verify this with Jeremiah.

The QTY column is fixed, so moving it is not an option. What is the reasoning for moving it to 2nd from the right?

You do have the option to send your schedule to Excel which would allow you to not only shift columns around to your liking, but would also let you add the additional formulas to get % of landscape area.

We do have a few pending wishlist items that might be a good fit to include the % of landscape area, so definitely noted, unfortunately there are a few other higher priorities pending before these ones.

If we can get those files to see how things are being put together, we might have a few other ideas on how to accomplish what you are trying to do. One of which might be to use Schematic Irrigation, but we can discuss this more once we receive your tech support ticket.
