Onceyouhavechosenacategoryandestablishedtheinitialsettingsfromthe
new schedule dialog box, clicking OK opens the Schedule Properties dialog
box. This dialog box has five tabs across the top that have settings to define
the behavior and appearance of your schedule. When you're scheduling
Space or Room objects as in
Figure 7.3
, there is an additional tab for
building an embedded schedule within the schedule you are creating. A
typical use for an embedded schedule might be a Space schedule that also
references lighting fixture details, so quantities of luminaires per space or
room can be created. An example of this is provided later in this chapter. It
is good to move through the tabs sequentially, establishing the settings in
eachtabbeforemovingtothenext.Thefirsttwotabsletyoudeterminewhat
information will be scheduled, while the last three enable you to control
how the data will be displayed and the graphical appearance of the schedule
when placed on a drawing.
The Fields Tab
The Fields tab of the Schedule Properties dialog box contains many tools for
choosing the information that will appear in a schedule.
