Creating an "Index" of sheets?

[doni49]

I created plan and profile sheets using the P&P tools.  Then I created a new drawing and attached (XREF) the dwg with the viewframes in it.  Then I set the viewframe layer to Plot instead of non-plot and I changed the color so that it would be heavy (we use CTB).

Then when I went to my PSPACE layout to try and plot, the viewframes are NOT there.  The layer IS turned on, because there's a PLINE that I drew on that layer and it DOES show up.  When in modelspace, the viewframes are there and the color did change as expected.

So why do they disappear when I'm on the layout tab?

The goal is to create a plottable sheet that identifies where each sheet is (I want to point to each viewframe and lable them C-101, C-102 etc).

TIA (AGAIN)!

You might want to try to datalink the view frames into the new drawing instead of only using the view frames through the x-ref.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I just tried it and it does the same thing--shows up in model space but not when I go to the layout tab.

Oh well.

Check your viewport freeze layers. I'm sure you've probably done that, but there isn't much other reason for it to show up in model and not the layout.
