Classifications and Schedule Tables
Classifications provide additional control over the content of schedule tables.
You can include:
â–  only those objects that meet the classification criteria.
â–  classification definitions as columns.
â–  additional information from property sets you create and attach to
individual classifications.
Uses for Classifications
Here are some examples of classification definitions:
â–  Classifications for multi-view blocks enable you to distinguish among
blocks to use for furniture, appliances, fixtures, and equipment
â–  Classifications for project phases can call out changes specified for new or
demolition work and existing structure to remain
â–  Classifications for door types let you filter partition doors in bathrooms
from door schedules
Classifications and the Display System
You can modify display sets in a display configuration to show or hide objects
based on their classification. For more information, see Displaying Objects by
Classification on page 826.
Managing Classification Definitions
Classifications are organized in a hierarchical view in the Style Manager.
Classification names must be unique within classification property definitions.
To create, edit, copy, or purge classification definitions, you access the Style
Manager. The Style Manager provides a central location for working with
definitions and styles from multiple drawings and templates. For more
information about using the Style Manager, see Style Manager Overview on
page 856.
After classifications are applied to objects in the classification definition, they
display on the Extended Data tab of the Properties palette when the object is
selected. You can change the classification for an object from the Extended
Data tab in the Select Classification worksheet. If the classification change
results in an object not displaying in your drawing window, a warning dialog
displays. You can also open the object style in the Style Manager and make
