Hello everyone, let me explain my case
I do architecture projects, and in a certain point i need to count the lintels of the project, because there are many different sizes and models, and i need have it all in a table.
I discovered recently, with help of this Forum that i can use the "Quick selection" to filter by text content, by this, i can filter the type of lintel i want, one by one in the drawing and by this discovery how many i have of each.
But now i need manually see how many of each linter in each floor i have and manually put in a table, and, if one day i add or remove one or more lintels i need to remember to change the table again.
My question is:
Is there a way to use the command "Field" to access the "Quick selection" preset to deliver me the number of the objects i want, and update it automatically if the number of objects in the drawing changes?

Let me improve my explanation, in case you guys didn't understand.
I can configure a quick selection preset that filter exactly the object that i want, but once i apply the quick selection the objects that i want are just selected and nothing else, i need a way to link those objects in a table and update that field if the amount changed.
This would be VERY useful for all of us, i basically want a way to count something in the dawning and feed a table with that information.
In AutoCAD i use to use extract data to generate a source table who feed a secondary table, but the problem of this is that it counts all objects of the who drawing, the quick selection in other hand you can open a window to choose the region of the drawing that you want performance that count, it's amazing because by this i can count the number of lintels or windows or doors by floor.

A tabular report allows you to combine and group data by various attributes.

How did you create this Construction tab that appears below "3D visualization" when you select one window?
I cant see it here, maybe i am using a different version of NanoCAD? I am using the 2022 version.
Besides, i also cant see the below tals such as "Object, Library, Point, Sheet..."
