Adding Thing Automatically
https://support.stackct.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/48736368055315-Rafters ←- that referenced a very cool assembly I've been using since someone pointed it out.
In the rafter example there, is it possible to automatically assign a couple rafter hangers to each stick that the formula in that assembly spits out? I'm looking to do the same thing with joist hangers and some other stuff, but if I can make it work on this takeoff/assembly, I can apply it to the others.
The rafters, by the way, won't have the same hanger at the tops and bottoms, if that makes a difference.

Hi Craig. When using Explode you get a linear takeoff with one line for each board you will be installing. The secondary measurement for a linear takeoff is the count. Each line (measurement) is a count of 1, so the total count from the takeoff equals the number of rafters. In an assembly formula, that is [MeasuredCount] and you can use it to give you the number of hangers. Hope that helps.
