Hello reviteers. I'm managing a sky scrapper in Revit 2009 (yeah yeah 2010 next time around) and having some issues with scheduling of curtain wall mullions. In the schedule I have columns for length and the count of mullions for each length. I have about 1200 unique lengths and I'd like Revit to tell me exactly how many I have. Is there a way to get the schedule to quantify the number of unique lengths? Thanks in advance!

Did you try sorting by length?

I'm sorting by Length and I could count the different types manually but I'd like the exact answer from Revit. The grand totals is only applying to the "count". I also need the number of different lengths.

No. You are totaling your "count" and your "type" fields in your image, that would be redundant information. I desire a total for the number of unique lengths. For example, I have three unique lengths of a mullion: type 1 is 30ft, type 2 is 32ft, type 3 is 40ft. I have 30 of type 1, 100 of type 2 and 1000 of type 3. I need the schedule to give me the count (which in this example would be 1130) and I need the number of unique lengths (in this example it would be 3)

Please don't be so quick... L O O K A G A I N The GT is the total of all mullios - yes ... but all the others are really sub totals based on type and length...Just what you asked for!

I'm sorry, I mdidn't understand < Tongue in cheek> In that case, Change the column I have titled "Count" to "Total count for type and length" Then L O O K A G A I N

I said I manage, don't take me for a laymen. You're not understanding the question and your etiquette is terrible for professional assitance. And after looking again, the answer is still NO, not helping the issue. Now go back and read the question slowly. Look at my image. Lengths are a column, I need the number of unique lengths. The count column is counting the amount of each of those unique lengths. I only have one type of which there are over a 1000 lengths and I'd like Revit to tell me the number of unique lengths. Thanks.

You mean you want as simple row number? Seems to me that would have been a far easier way to ask. You just want row 1,2,3.... The answer is no. but I can sure do it easier than with my finger.

Learn to read questions before answering because again, no. I want to count all the rows that exist. And unless you have 754 fingers it is not an easy task. I'm doing this in Excel for now. If there is anyone else who wants to give this a shot, I would really appreciate a clean schedule in Revit. Thanks.

Yeah, I don't think there is a way to add a "row count" total to a schedule in revit.
