Reporting Partial Item Type with Fence/Border

Need the ability to report a partial quantity for an item type. For example, I can use this.GetElement().LinearElement_Length to calculate the length of an element. But I cannot report part of the length with a fence or border. My only options in the Reports -> Selection is All, By Fence, or Current Selection. These options only report on the entire element.

    Long linear elements such as pavement marking and guardrail should be able to be reported on by named boundaries if they are clipped according to the named boundary group. Summary of quantities on plans are often tabulated by sheet.

    The best methodology for this now seems to be to copy the elements, dropping the rules, breaking them one by one at each boundary. Then running the report manager on them.
