You can also add subsets to help better organize the sheet set,
00:09
right, click the sheet set name and choose new subset.
00:14
The program displays the subset properties. Dialogue,
00:17
click in the subset name field, then change the subset name to architectural.
00:25
A
00:26
subset is like a visual folder in your sheet list.
00:30
By default, adding a subset does not create a folder on your hard drive.
00:35
Although you do have the option of creating folders by clicking in
00:38
the create folder hierarchy field and changing this option to yes,
00:44
leave this set to know,
00:47
leave all the other settings unchanged and simply click. OK.
00:54
Repeat these steps to add a second subset called structural.
01:02
Repeat these steps again to create a third subset called civil
01:09
and then repeat these steps one more time
01:12
to create a subset called sight.
01:18
You can also easily rename or remove a subset,
01:23
right. Click the civil subset and choose remove subset.
01:30
You can use drag and drop to rearrange sheets and subsets
01:35
drag and drop the site subset
01:38
so that it is above architectural in the list.
01:42
Now that you have created subsets,
01:44
you can move the sheets into the appropriate subsets,
01:48
select sheet A dash 01
01:52
and drag it onto the architectural subset to move it into that subset.
01:58
Then
01:59
drag and drop sheets. A dash 02,
02:03
A dash 03 and a dash 04 into the architectural subset.
02:11
Move sheet A S dash 01
02:15
into the site subset
02:20
and move sheet S dash 01
02:23
into the structural subset.
02:26
Leave the title sheet at the top of the sheet list.
02:32
You may have noticed that as you renumber sheets
02:35
or drag and drop them to new locations,
02:37
the sheet numbers do not automatically update to
02:40
reflect their position in the sheet list.
02:43
If you want the sheet numbers to correspond to their order in the sheet list,
02:48
you must manually change them
02:51
at this point.
02:51
The sheet names and numbers are doing nothing more than enabling you to
02:55
view and access your drawing sheets by knowing their sheet numbers and sheet names
03:01
rather than having to remember the drawing, file names and locations.
03:06
But as you continue to build on the sheet set functionality,
03:10
the value of sheet names and numbers will become more obvious.
03:14
For example,
03:16
in the sheet list,
03:17
double click the first floor plan sheet to open that sheet
03:22
in the title block.
03:23
You can see that the program automatically updated the sheet number
03:28
because the title block includes a field corresponding
03:32
to the sheet number in the sheet set.
03:36
Click the X in the file tabs to close the drawing.
03:40
Then
03:41
in the sheet set manager. Right. Click the sheet set
03:45
and choose close sheet set.
00:03
You can also add subsets to help better organize the sheet set,
00:09
right, click the sheet set name and choose new subset.

02:03
A dash 03 and a dash 04 into the architectural subset.
02:11

02:15
into the site subset
02:20
and move sheet S dash 01
02:23
into the structural subset.
