Convert - Change a Solid into a Form

If you place a "dumb solid" that has no instance data, you can then add instance data to the solid.

The issue is that when you create a schedule, the solid does not have the same information as the form, particularly for volume, mass, perimeter, and top and bottom elevations.

How frequently will feature be used? Several times a day
How much time will you save? Some types of slabs are not easily modellable using forms so modelling a solid and then adding instance data

    Hi David, could you please provide us with a description of how you are modeling the data and with an example file? This gives us a better chance to evaluate if there is a workaround or if this is an idea or a bug.
