    Its actually not important at all to export your custom columns in the correct order as you can set a final column order in PQ as one of your last steps.
    Table.ReorderColumns is the command.
    The way I would handle this is to have a Connection Only query of the final order saved as a List, and then use the Table.ReorderColumns command with that list to set your final order.

    I almost always build tools with intent, and I try to work out what’s going to happen before it happens, that being said… best laid plans and all that. 💥💣

    When this does happen its usually much later down the road when I realize I can use an existing data point for something else. I’ve had a couple of instances where 💡and I say, “hey, I can use this for a join or something.

    Did my first run through of my presentation today and it went well.

    Came in at 48 minutes, which is acceptable. A bit of room for questions.

    Did get some feedback, so I have a little work to do. Nothing major.

    Was good to do a run through because I hadn’t done the demo’s live yet and now I ha to work out a few bugs.

    Don’t think I’m going to have to finish it on the plane or Wednesday morning, but one never knows… lol

    I peeked at the slide deck so I probably start with at least that.

    I was using that wand yesterday on a re-tender I’m currently working on… what a time saver.

    I’m glad that the team heard our calls and will be putting it on a Rt. click menu when its released.

    I’m not seeing it as a Side Panel.

    I was in a webinar yesterday and the Host (Stephanie) had it in the Document Menu directly under the Compare and Overlay headings.
    I would love to have to activated because I can see this being used in Architectural as well as Civil.

    I still have the version that we were using on the Beta (21.7.0) for the ‘Magic Wand’ features, but I’m not seeing Stitching anywhere.

    Stitching is still in Beta and will probably only be available in MAX.

    This one was just my Estimating Team.
    I’m going to try and do one more tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll get a few more folks from our office.
