Flat Patterns on Drawing Sheets

Is it possible to have more than one sheet metal flat pattern on a drawing sheet? Or am I limited to only one sheet metal flat pattern per sheet.

Sure is. When you create your drawing for each individual component, select Flat Pattern, chose to place it on the existing drawing and on the same sheet. Of course the first view creates the drawing sheet.

Thanks.

Please confirm that for this to work I need to create Create Drawing from the model and not add Base View from the drawing sheet.

Yes, you will create drawing views from the model.

Thanks.

One final question.

If I have multiple sheets, the destination sheet numbering is the original order in which the sheets were created.

If I reorder the sheets this does not alter the destination sheet number?

Although the sheet numbering in the title block changes.

A bit confusing.

You have make a statement, which is true, I do not see a question. I would try and minimize the re-arranging of sheets, within the drawing is it is confusing to you.
