Resume from the Markup List to keep the marker shape, colour, name, and group total aligned.

Resume a count group

  1. 1

    Open Markup List

    Find the count group or one of its markers in the Markup List.

  2. 2

    Use Resume Count

    Open the context menu and choose Resume Count.

  3. 3

    Place more markers

If two groups represent the same item type, merge them or rename them clearly before using totals in a quote.
