Walls by Type

Split the detected wall footage into one line per partition type, read from the sheet's wall tags or wall legend.

Steps

Open the Auto Takeoff (lightning bolt) menu, click Wall LF, and select “Walls by type”. (Walls only and All Takeoffs give Perimeter Walls and Interior Walls totals instead.)
To run a whole set at once, choose "Multiple sheets…" at the bottom of the Auto Takeoff menu: pick what to run (all takeoffs, walls, walls by type, doors, glazing or rooms) and tick the sheets (search by number or title, or Select all). Yanno opens each sheet in turn and runs it; a panel in the corner shows progress, lets you stop, and lists what finished, failed or was skipped. Each sheet runs at its own scale, so a sheet without one is marked "no scale" and can't be ticked until you set its scale. Runs go one at a time, about 30 to 90 seconds each, and the batch pauses on its own if the hourly limit is reached.
Or, if walls are already detected, click the By type button on the Interior Walls row in the Takeoffs tab (the Walls row on older projects). Yanno reuses the detected walls when it can.
Allow about a minute longer than a plain wall run.
Results appear in a Walls group under Auto Takeoffs, whose header shows the total LF. Each type gets its own row and color (for example "Type P1"). Perimeter walls with a type go in that type's row.
Interior walls that could not be matched to a type go in an amber "Untyped" row at the end, and perimeter walls that could not be matched stay in the Perimeter Walls row. Review them, and use Reclassify to move pieces into the right type.

•If the sheet has no wall tags or legend, you keep the Perimeter Walls and Interior Walls totals. The By type button tells you "No wall-type tags or legend found on this sheet."
•Each wall-type row has its own "Include door openings (+3' per door leaf)" checkbox.
