Glass sqft max
Would it be possible to put a maximum sqft/ dimension in for a glass type to prevent applying glass to a light that is to large?

Our glass suppliers charge a higher $/SqFt with units above a certain SqFt limit, then another charge above a 2nd SqFt limit.
It would be beneficial in this case to have extra fields for those costs at those SqFt limits.
The glass suppliers call these "Surcharge", which amounts to a higher SqFt cost on those units.
This can easily be missed by an estimator not double-checking glass sizes on their project. -

HalMaybe include an option to provide a warning level and an absolute max level? For example, I can purchase oversize units at a premium cost within limits (e.g. 1" IG units > 50 sqft but less than 60ish sqft). Once over the upper limit, I have to shift to thicker glass with more significant impacts (e.g. glass and framing system changes).

Ben Zuill-Smith AdminWould you like this to be a property of the glass product? That is, do different glass products have different max requirements?
Or a more general setting that applies everywhere?
Or perhaps some combination (a default applied to all glass, but overrides at the product level)? -

Timothy HouleEven just some sort of flag or highlight on the glass overview would be helpful. Different suppliers have different square footages for what they categorize as oversized, and some have multiple sizes (over 50 sq ft, over 65, over 75, etc.)
