Description

BidScreen XL is an Excel add-in that allows you to takeoff electronic plans in Microsoft Excel. BidScreen XL offers an excellent audit trail and automates the tedious takeoff process. It's easy to takeoff: just click on a cell in a spreadsheet and measure, count, and identify areas from your digital drawings. The Excel workbook saves the measurements and color-coded takeoff drawings and can be edited and printed. You can also apply colors, count symbols and line styles to your drawings. You will also find sample estimating Excel templates for general contractors, concrete, roofing and painting. Uses DWG vector and PDF files. To get exact measurements, snap layers to the object and isolate them. With a single click, you can open multiple quantity takeoff files and multiple pages in a file.
