AutoCad :: Automatic Pagination In Sheet Set?
Feb 1, 2013
I beleive this qualifies as a general acad question, I am using Civil 3D. We have a sheet set that is 237 sheets, all in one discipline. The individual sheet numbers are in a field in the title block. These numbers are pulled in from the page number in the sheet properties which is manually entered. However when a sheet is added or removed, this requires a large amount of work renumbering all the sheet properties so that the sheet numbers are up-to-date. Isn't there a way that acad will automatically revise the sheet numbers so they are up-to-date without having to renumber all the sheets?

What I'd like to know is if there's a way to automatically update the sheet number in separate dwgs.
For example: at work we have 45 separate dwgs in multiple disciplines. Is there a way to have the "x" in "Sheet X of 45" update automatically on each sheet? This way whenever we insert/delete a sheet in the set it automatically knows which number it is in regard to the set as a whole.
Running Autocad 2008 btw. Full Version.

I've created a Sheet Set and added custom properties for things such as Drawn By, Checked By and such. Whenever I link my title block to these fields, the value shows up but when I change the value in the Sheet Set properties, the value is not automatically updated. I have to manually redirect it to the field. Why isn't it being updated automatically?

I have an older drawing with an outdated sheet format. I'm wanting to update to a new custom sheet format without having to redimension and recreate views. Is it possible to just update the sheet format?

I am having a problem opening older sheet sets from AutoCAD 2014.
I can select the .dst file, but when it "opens" I onlly have the icon in the seet set manager and nothing else, it is entirely blank.
I made a new sheet set, but now older versions of AutoCAD cannot read that one.

A collegue asked me about this as he has been given a part to model and the details are for the flat sheet not the finished model. Is this possible in 'sheet metal'? I had a quick play but couldn't work it out. Im used to creating the finished part and 'un-folding' to get the flat pattern.Detail supplied below.

I have a dwg file with three sheets in, just default names, I can access sheets 2 and 3 but get the attached errors when trying to access sheet 1 form either sheet 2 or 3
This file was originally created in IV2009 I've had no problems then or with the various conversions of it.
It seems to be memory related so here's the sitrep as for memory 8GB DDR2 RAM, and Virtual Memory set at min of 8192MB and a Max of 16384MB, I did have it set a systems managed but that gave a warning of low virtual memory with almost every drawing file that I opened.

I am using AutoCAD 2013 and I working on a project of approxamitely 80 pages and I have a Sheet Set Manager set up.There are about 40 pages that have text saying Continuation on Sheet XX of YY. I managed to use a field for the total count (YY) however I need to link the XX to the another drawing. I have researched and failed miserably.

I'm trying to set up a title block template that will be used between several different sheet sets. I have entered the custom properties, then when I go to the title block and try to insert the fields with current sheet set custom the drop down box is empty and then when I try to type in the custom property name the link still does not function. Is there some trick that I'm missing, or is this function broken on AutoCad 2013?

I am using Inventor 2010 (I know this is my first problem, but you have to use what you're given!) and I need to use the sheet number in a calculation that will display the result in a text box. =((<SHEET NUMBER>-1)8)=1 displays a result of ((11-1)8)+1. I suspect that the sheet number is being brought in as text instead of a number. I tried adding atoi to the equation to convert the sheet number to an integer, but it did not work.Is there an alternate source for the sheet number that will return a number? Is my syntax wrong?

How people deal with multiple revisions of one sheet with sheet set manager, basically I want the cover sheet of drawings to have a list of drawings including the revision letter and revision date and on each individual sheet keep track of historical revisions
There is the current sheet revision and date fields.Does everyone usually just update these and manually keep track of historical revisions else where in there title block?

I'm fairly new to Autocad and getting used to using sheet set manager. What I'm experiencing is, when you insert a model view it brings in an xref of that model, but i'm then unsure how to add additional xref models into the same view.
For example I have a separate ground floor plan file and OS data file which I want to show in the one sheet view without nesting the OS data to the original ground floor file.

I was creating a new sheet set in the sheet set manager as I have created new drawings to be added to the old one. When I do this and browse to the directory of drawings, once I hit next it only wants to create a sheet with a few drawings in the directory. There are 22 drawings in the directory and is leaving out about 18 when it creates the sheet set.

I am using the Sheet Set options to creat my Sheet Index. It imports everything just fine. My issue is when I want to create a space between sections the option to add a row is greyed out. For ex I would like my sheet index to look similer to the following
S1.01
S1.11
S1.41
S2.01
S2.03
S3.01
ETC.
Is there a way to do this using the sheet index option in Sheet Set manager?

Often when I attempt to insert a sheet list from the project navigator to a sheet, nothing happens. The sheet index will not insert. Why does this happen? Better yet, how can I fix it?

We are looking for a way to export BOM's without having to open individual IDW's.
We were unable to find such a function in either Inventor or Vault Workgroup. We have found customized function for export but each file has to be opened. Is there such a function available that we might have missed or third party?
We are currently working with 2011 versions of Inventor and Vault Workgroup, soon to be migrated to 2013.

I've recently changed idw template and since then when I put part view into new draft the file name don't change into source file name.
In standard template, when I save the .idw file it automatically propose name that is equal to source .ipt and .iam. Why when I'm saving files it won't propose file name the same as the source ipt file name?

I have overlaid Autocad points on a polygon topology representing tree stands. I now want to somehow attribute the points so that the points within each stand are numbered sequentially in a top to bottom, left to right order starting with number 1 and prefix each point number with the stand number. These attributed points will need to be exported to a shape file for use in ArcGIS.
How this might be accomplished aside from manually typing in the attributes. I've considered using the Text Numbering tool in Express Tools but Map requires blocks for Point topology attributes. I've also considered object data but I don't see any way to automate the data.
I am using Civil Series/LDT/Map 2004 but I also have C3D 2011, ArcGIS 9.2, Microstation v8i Select Series 1 and Dotsoft Toolpac if any of those tools would offer a better approach.

I often need to work on big drawings having utility networks, topographic surveys and properties. Whenever using FIND command in such a drawing AutoCAD regens the drawing. This happens even if FIND command is cancelled and takes 2 to 3 seconds everytime. Can I disable this automatic regen and do only when I need.

Is there a simpler way of creating Isolines (more like transition geometry) between a couple of flat 2D profiles?
Isolines.PNG
Currently I am using the LOFT command for the purpose. But it doesn't automatically produce the desired Isolines as both the "parent profiles" are in the same plane. For that, I have to manually elevate one "parent profile" then change the Isoline UV number, then do some export/import WMF thingy to remove the unwanted edge profile...
