Schedule areas

00:03

And we're looking at the floor four zone in area plan here

00:07

and areas have been placed into this view.

00:09

And also in the area plans for floors 12 and three,

00:15

the areas have all been named according to the function of that zone of the building.

00:19

So looking a little closer here, we have an area for office space,

00:23

circulation and core.

00:28

We also have another office space in the tower here

00:31

and an atrium at the end of the building.

00:36

So we'll go ahead and make the area schedule.

00:39

So from the view ribbon tab on the create panel,

00:42

we'll click the schedules drop down

00:45

and then we'll click on the schedules and quantities.

00:49

So we'll search the categories for areas

00:53

from the list of filtered results here.

00:55

We can see we have some different area schemes.

00:57

So we'll slightly areas, a zoning scheme here

01:00

and then we'll click ok to go to the schedule properties

01:05

from the list of available fields. We'll first choose the name field

01:11

and then we'll click the button in the middle

01:13

here to add that into the scheduled fields.

01:16

And then we'll do the same with the level.

01:18

And then finally with the area field.

01:22

So now we have the fields added,

01:24

I'll swap to the sorting and group in tab.

01:27

And first we'll sort by name

01:31

and then

01:31

we'll sort by level

01:35

and then to group them by the name,

01:36

we'll check to add the header and footer under the name field.

01:42

Now, a bit further down,

01:43

we'll also check to display the grand totals so that we can see the total areas.

01:50

So we'll go to the format in tab now

01:52

and we'll select the area filled.

01:55

Look on the right hand side, we can see it's set to no calculations.

01:58

So we'll select this and choose calculate totals to have the total area calculated.

02:04

So now we'll click ok to create that schedule.

02:08

And we can see now that we've got the

02:10

areas here and they're grouped according to their name.

02:12

So, hm circulation core and office space

02:15

and then they're ordered according to the level holder.

02:19

And then we can see the total area for each type

02:22

and then at the bottom we have the grand total. So 22 areas in total

02:26

and about 69,500 square feet.

02:31

Looking at the area column,

02:32

we can see it's there to two decimal places and we'll make

02:35

a change to this to the round to the nearest square foot.

02:38

So from the properties palette

02:40

on the other panel here, we'll click the edit button next to formatting

02:45

and then was slightly area filled

02:48

and on the right here, we'll click to edit the field format

02:52

and we can see it's currently set to use project settings. So we'll uncheck this

02:57

and then we change the rounding to be zero decimal places.

03:02

And then we'll change the unit symbol from none to sf to indicate square feet.

03:07

And then we can click, OK.

03:09

And then, ok, once more

03:11

to apply those changes, and we can see now that that column has changed.

03:14

So it's rounded to the nearest square foot.

03:16

And we also have the sf to indicate square feet.

03:21

So that finishes creating the schedule

03:24

and I'll swap back to the floor for area plan view

03:28

and we'll apply a color scheme to this view

03:30

to color the areas according to their name.

03:33

So it will go to the annotate ribbon tab

03:35

and from the color fill panel,

03:37

we'll click to add a color fill legend.

03:41

Now, we can see we have the legend attached to our cursor here. So

03:44

I'll just place it in the view

03:47

and then from the space time and color scheme, we can see we have the area zone in

03:51

and schema one is the only one available. So we'll click. Ok.

03:55

And we can see now that those areas have been colored,

03:58

but they all have the same color.

03:59

And this is based on the area type.

04:02

We need to create a new scheme.

04:04

So I'll select the legend here and then from the

04:07

colorful legend ribbon tab here or click edit scheme.

04:12

And now from the schemes panel, we'll click duplicate to create a new color scheme

04:17

and we name this area name

04:21

and then click OK to create that new scheme.

04:25

So from the definition panel, we'll change the title to be by name

04:32

and then we'll change the color

04:34

to be set by the name parameter.

04:38

We'll have a warning letting us know that the colors are not preserved. So,

04:41

so we'll click. OK? I did a new scheme

04:44

now, we can see the names and the colors associated to those

04:48

and the colors look a little bit light.

04:50

So I'll click on the color here next to the office space

04:54

and then

04:54

we'll select a new color for this.

04:56

So I'll just click the light blue color here and click. OK?

05:00

And then I'll put the color next to the atrium too.

05:05

And again, we'll pick a new color. So let's select the pink color just here

05:10

and then we'll click. OK?

05:12

And then we'll click, OK? Again to save and apply the new color scheme to the view.

05:16

And we can see now that we have the areas colored according to their name.

05:20

And also the legend has been updated.

05:22

We'll apply this to another view. So let's open the floor two zoning area plan

05:28

and then we'll go to the annotate ribbon tab

05:31

and from the color field panel, we'll click to add the color field legend.

05:35

We'll place the legend in the view

05:37

and we can see the space type is zone in

05:39

and the color scheme is area name, which is the one that we've created.

05:43

So when we click, OK,

05:44

we can see those same colors get applied to the areas according to their name.

05:50

And that now finishes scheduling in our areas and applying those color schemes.
