AutoCAD - Rename & Renumber Sheet (Sheet Set Manager) new options

AutoCAD - Rename & Renumber Sheet (Sheet Set Manager) new options

Dear Autodesk, first of all the only product/category I found was AutoCAD Electrical but this idea is related to any AutoCAD version which contains Sheet Set Manager - if required please move this topic to the correct location.

 

So here we go, I've been using Sheet Set Manager for a long time and it's an absolutely great tool to manage a set of drawings within a project.

 

Currently when you press "Rename & Renumber Sheet" you have the option to Rename the drawing file to match the Sheet Title. You can prefix it with the Sheet Number.

 

My idea is very simple: it's basically give users the option to Rename the drawing file and layout to match the Sheet Number and suffix it with the Sheet Title if required.

 

REFER TO ATTACHED FILE

 

Most companies (100% of all companies I worked for) have their drawing files named to match the drawing numbers and not the other way around.

 

This happens because drawing names could easily change while drawing numbers don't change as much.

The same happens with the Layout tabs.

 

Please give us that additional option as well.

Please Autodesk, make it happen.

I agree with Anonymous, 

 

I would like Sheet Manager to match what the Rename / Renumber shows.

The information is there in Rename / Renumber but they don't allow the Sheet Set Manager to show that information.

The Layout Name is in Rename / Renumber. Now let it show up in the Sheet Set Manager's viewing.

This is how I would like to see Sheet Set Manager's view with additional Columns / Rows for the following:

   A:  Sheet Counts

   B:  Drawing Number

   C:   Drawing Name

 

See Pasted Layout.

 

Thanks, JRR.
