Just curious, are you take-offs limited to lf and type of base, crown, casing, jamb extension, picture rail, chair rail, ect. and door count, type and size? Area of wood ceilings, wall paneling, wainscot, ect?

If so, I’ve found that Revu by itself can give you those quantities with relatively few clicks if you utilize the custom column and custom tool functions. For example, a single area measurement in a room can give you wood ceiling area (area measurement), base length, crown length and chair rail length (length measurement as defined by the built-in function of the area measurement) and wood wall area (length measurement multiplied by “depth as designated in your particular tool) if that is what you require. A measured door width (polyline) can give you casing length (length + (2 x depth)), and deduct base and chair rail length from the previously measured totals. There are many more techniques that can be used to reduce keystrokes/time and lessen the chance of a mistakes trying to manipulate data outside of Revu.

At least this works for me and if your take-off work is fairly repetitive, maybe it could work for you.
