Add Views in Project Manager

[Anonymous]

Help!  I am extremely stuck, and I have to train three new employees this afternoon!

I have used AutoCAD for Windows and for Mac pretty extensively, but I have only ever used sheets sets on Windows.  I have to train three new employees this afternoon who will be using Mac computers, and I am just now realizing that Project Manager is quite different from Sheet Set Manager.  With SSM, I start by creating the sheet set, setting all the properties, and associating the drawing files through the model views tab.  Then I create new sheets directly through SSM and place views from the model views tab.  I made it through creating the sheet set and setting properties in PM, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to associate drawing files.  I can create new sheets, but I have no idea how to add views to the sheet.  I have Googled and Googled to no avail.  Can something help me out?  What are the steps to create a fully function sheet through PM?  Thank you.

Hi Juliana,

Project Manager in AutoCAD for Mac is not the same as SSM in AutoCAD for Windows. It has limited functionality and inability to add Model space views is one of the missing features in it.

Oh no!  What do you do instead to get a drawing into a layout on a new sheet?

One of the ways - xref drawing with contents in Model space to the Model space of the newly added Layout, then create viewports in this Layout.
To say true, I don't use Project Manager in AutoCAD for Mac.

Hi there, I was wondering how you solved this matter in the end. I'm having the same troubles.

Many thanks
