Add sub layers to existing and proposed to be able to separate what is viewable on cluttered plans.

This may exist, I apologize if I just can't find it. When getting quantities and lengths of items on plans the "Len/EA" section becomes very cluttered and difficult to read. If I could separate storm, sewer, water, electric, etc into sub layers in active layers, then this would save a ton of frustration and time. Please advise if you have found a solution to this.

    Phil Arnt, this did work fairly well. Thank you. Do you know of a way to include multiple proposed layers in the "Summary" generated?

    Something is broken in the layer manager this used to work in older versions of PCMX. You can add layers to the [layer manager] but only from the takeoff screen.

    I would call it a clunky work around, but I tested it and it does function.
