Choosing a model for takeoff
In the Model Takeoff window, use one of the following methods
to open a model in the Interview window.
- Select a model and click
[Interview].
- Double-click on a model in
the list.
The source option indicates whether the Model Takeoff window
lists models in the database or in the estimate.
- To takeoff a new model, choose
from the list of database models. Note that each time you select a database
model, you are actually making a copy of it as an estimate model.
- To view a model in progress
or already generated to the spreadsheet, choose from the list of estimate
models.
Tip: If
the database containing the selected model is not open, the model appears
in read-only mode.
