Hi all,

Im not sure why I cannot change the layout name from sheet set menu during using Autocad. This option looks to be blocked. I already tried this (https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Rename-Renumber-Sh...) with no success. I have done it in the past with no troubles, so I dont know why is failing now. Hope anybody can helps. Thanks you all.

Is there a "padlock" icon on your sheets in the SSM Palette by chance?

Hi pendean. Thanks for writing. Yes, there is a padlock next to every plan of the SSM Palette, when the file that contains these plans is open. However, I have also tried to change the layout name on the SSM Palette when the file is closed, and it doesnt work anyway.

Padlock means the sheets are open by someone else, or reside in folder you are locked out of from editing, or that layout is part of yet another sheetset, or relocating the DST (ssm) while it was open, so there is no editing allowed at all by anyone. Or this
https://jtbworld.com/sheet-set-manager#:~:text=Sheet%20set%20data%20(DST)%20file%20locking

Which by chance applies to you?
And are you using VAULT or BIM360 or something similar?

Hi pendean. According to the link you sent me, I have tried to move the files to a folder on my computer (I was working directly on my desktop, but it was on a Onedrive path), and it worked. So it looks to be a problem with onedrive/google drive sync. Thanks you a lot for your replies. Regards
