Ability to delete all child take off items quickly.

submitted by Lee Cure for Atlanta group

Ability to delete all child take off items quickly. Or, at least, be able to multi-select child items in the Takeoff Items window. We copy all the items to another pack to represent duplicate levels. In the example below, the third and fourth floors are the same material (multipliers at the pack does not create separate material list for third and fourth floor, which is required for shipping). When editing the parent items, not all items are edited. In the example below, I had to change all the floor joists from 11⅞” BCI5000 to 11⅞” AJS150. The joist change happened without a problem, but the hangers did not copy to the child. To be confident in the material list for the 4th floor, I delete all the of the child items, and create them again, when I am done editing. Currently I must delete all child items one by one.
