When Publishing .. Check if Drawing is already open

I swear there was a setting iether in the sheet set publish settings or the optiosn menu somwhere that allowed the following...

 

"Don't Reopen drawings that are already open when publishing"

 

This obviously saves a lot of load time when publishing/plotting.

 

Anyone know where this is?

I've never seen that, but I'll be watching here to see if someone points it out.

Boom!! found it.. I cant believe how obvious it was. It's in the publish dialog box.. Which im so used to skipping because i plot straight from the sheet set!

 

This speeds up plotting so much if you already have all the drawings open, untick to force open drawings to be plotted without reloading.

So where is this option for publishing through the Sheet Set Manager? Thanks.

From the sheet set manager just use the "publish dialog box" option as per image below

Be good if it was a native option in the sheet set publish settings though!

Yes, because going though the publish dialog box defeats the goal of quickly publishing a SS to PDF.
