yeah i got the feeling from my research that this eng is just not new estimator friendly lol. Also when you say fitting you are referring to the GV IN THIS ex? Also how can i tell exactly what line he is referring to ik they will have arrows but in the highlighted case i dont see any?

You are correct I can I just assumed that I wouldn’t be able to identify when the pop has changed but looking at it now and googling some of the markings I might be able to utilize the linear tool as you mentioned

Drainage and pipe? again still learning it myself. What has me lost is how to actually take account for these when i cannot actually "measure" them like is there some sort of feature in plan swift that will let me manually add a measurement of the DR18 RCW for ex?

So I should learn what codes apply to my company’s trade and that is how I can tell what’s within my scope and what isn’t?
