Creating Cross Sections

[Anonymous]

I have been trying to get my cross sections ready for plotting. I
created a Group Plot Style that has the following settings:

Plot Section Views: By Columns
Max in Row: 2
Max in Column: 3
Start Corner: Lower Left
Align Sections About: Centerline
Column Space: 5
Row Space: 3
Cell Size: Uniform for all
Plot By: Plot by page
Section View Group Sheet Style: Plot Sheet Style
Gap between Pages: 4"

Settings for the Sheet Style, "Plot Sheet Style"
Page Layout: Cross Sections (Layout) (this is ARCH D size)

What I cannot get to work is getting 6 cross sections per sheet. I can
get the actual sections to show correctly, but it ends up creating 1
sheet with all the cross sections or 1 sheet per section. It changes
everytime I regen the screen. If I'm in a layout with a viewport to the
model space, the sheet changes. How in the world are you supposed to
get the sheets to quit changing all the time? This is extremely
annoying and the built in help is no help at all.

It's almost impossible to respond to your post without the actual
dataset - hence the apparent silence.

If you can, post the zipped file here if under a meg or in Customer
Files if over. I'm sure someone will give it a crank.
