Hello
I'm currently designing some custom heavy bases for trusses, and I wanted to add them in reports.
I add a Built in report item to my group but I wish to exclude the objects I use in my group from all reports.
It would be awesome to have a "include in reports" parameter in every object property, set to "yes" by default, but allowing us to exclude them from reports
Have a nice day

I'm confused - you say you wanted to add them in reports, but the go on saying you want to exclude objects you use in your groups from all reports?

You can exclude items from a report only by layer at the moment. If I understand it correctly, you would like to do this by item in the selected item properties window.

This way you could disable it for evry individual part of a structure you have created and just have the report item (grouped to the structure) shown in the reports.

A workaround for now could be to put the rpeort item in another layer and group it to the structure.

So what types of objects do you have in the group that show in reports, apart from the report item?

Hello
When I "construct" my truss floor base, I use some generic truss elements
That's the elements I want to hide
