starting a new sketch

[akosi]

hi,

this maybe a silly question but this really bothers me.

i want to start a sketch as sketch 1, is there a way to change it beside renaming it?

i want to save it in the template , so every time someone starts a sketch it will starts as sketch 1.

There may be a better way,  but you could create a sketch in your template and rename it there, adding the space before the 1.

Then if the sketch needs to be on another plane later,  instead of creating a sketch, you just redefine it to the plane you want then edit it.

You could probably create an iLogic rule that would force the naming convention you want as the user creates sketches.  This could even fix the initial sketch1 naming convention.
