Spent 2 years exporting takeoffs wrong from PlanSwift

I was exporting all my takeoff quantities as total counts instead of per sheet for framing projects. A guy from the lumber yard called me up and asked why my numbers were always double what the prints showed. I felt like an idiot but at least the material orders started making sense after that. Anybody else learn a basic software feature way later than they should have?

Man that lumber yard guy probably saved you so much headache down the road. At least you found out before some big job went totally sideways. I swear half of learning this software is just figuring out what you've been doing wrong for years.

Right? It's like every time I learn something new in this program I find out I've been doing three other things completely backwards.
