When exporting grouped mark-ups to CSV, only the first mark-up is shown within the CSV. Suggestion is to include an option where all mark-ups within the group are shown on the CSV.
that would be great. Depending on how the data is in the markup, I have a workflow that can do this in Power Query.
This will be very useful in our applications.
We created symbols in the toolbox with metadata to capture instruments in P&IDs and compile an Instrument Index quickly. Being able to group the symbols in control loops could accelerate the process, but the actual limitation of the CSV exporting only the first group line of data and ignoring the child lines does not allow us to implement such a function.
One solution could be to add a function with a check box to select the lines in the markup list we would like to export, or just exporting everything, data can be cleaned outside BB with other tools.
you can't do it with a traditional grouped Markup, but there are ways to do it.
Hi Doug,
Our workaround is to ungroup the loop components after they are placed in the drawing, but this extra step has proven inconvenient and prone to errors.
What other options do you suggest?
I do it outside of Revu in Power Query. When I set up my tools I do it like this First Tool; Second Tool
PQ has a function that allows you to split by a delimiter to Rows. Inside the query I have steps that will split this by the ; . When it does that all the data gets transferred to the other line item. I posted a video on how this all works in the March Markup Madness Challenge last month. Go check it out.
