# Total Summary

This section of the **In-Builder Settings** is responsible for configuring the **Summary Block,** or formerly the **Grand Total** part of your calculator. **Summary Block** is the part of the calculator where all the calculation results and total cost (formula elements) will be shown.

To improve the best user experience, the Summary block settings are located individually for each section within it, and real-time changes are applied right in the builder:

Generally, there are three settings:

* **Sticky (** :star:**Pro Feature) -** this fixes the **Summary Block** position in the top portion of your calculator when a user scrolls the page. It will allow quick access to the total summary when the calculator includes many elements. The **Preview** button next to the setting can be used to check how it will look.&#x20;
* **Zero Values in Orders, PDF Entries, Emails -** disable to hide elements that have 0 value in Orders Tab, PDF Entries, and Emails.&#x20;
* **Arrangement** - in this section, you can organize the fields/sections in the Total Summary and change their preferences (titles, preferences, etc.).

### Arrangement

You can organize the total summary field into several sections and move fields/sections inside of it among these sections by dragging and dropping them (use <i class="fa-grip-dots-vertical">:grip-dots-vertical:</i> icon). Clicking the three dots <i class="fa-ellipsis-vertical">:ellipsis-vertical:</i> icon next to each field/section opens its preferences:

Here's the breakdown of fields/sections of the Total Summary field:

* **Header** - displays the title of the Total Summary field.
* **Details** - contains all info about the elements' user-entered values in the calculator.
  * **Expanded/Collapsed** - keeps the section minimized by default or vice versa. Even if it's collapsed by default, the user can expand it in the front end.
  * **Show Zero Values** - disable to hide elements that have a 0 value. If their value is changed to any number other than 0, they will be displayed.&#x20;
  * **Cost Breakdown -** setting enables the display of the selected options in the Summary Block. This allows users to visualize how the price is determined. The **Preview** button next to the setting can be used to check how it will look.&#x20;
* **PDF Button** - displays the '*Download PDF*' button that enables the generation of a [**PDF Invoice**](/cost-calculator-builder/cost-calculator-settings/global-settings/pdf-entries.md) and downloads it. You can change the button width in preferences.
* **Share Button** - displays the button that opens the share quote form for the [PDF Entries](/cost-calculator-builder/cost-calculator-settings/global-settings/share-quote-form.md). You can change the button width in preferences.
* **Payments** - displays the enabled payment methods for this calculator
* **Coupons** - displays the *Apply a Coupon* field.
* **Total** - displays the total amount that needs to be charged.
* **Purchase Button** - displays the button that initiates the payment or redirects to the payment gateway's checkout page.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/cost-calculator-builder/cost-calculator-settings/in-builder-setting/total-summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
