AutoCAD LT Sheet Set Manager - Relative Path

[cloryUWFYQ]

When I add locations for model views in sheet set manager, AutoCAD LT is displaying the absolute path, not the relative path or just be the folder name.

My colleagues are newbies to the concept of sheet set manager, and the long path names are a complicating factor in what is a huge leap for them.   How do I change the path type for AutoCAD LT sheet sets?

SSM is designed to work with full paths AFAIK.

If I may ask, what challenges are being faced with files locations and SSM exactly? I'm not sure I follow along, since we all have to drill down to deeply buried folders to use files anyway.

Location with full path

I am accustomed to just seeing the name of the folder.  When we have views in different folders (Plans, details, structural...) the user needs to make the extra step of rolling over the location path to see what the name of the folder. I am accustomed to the name of the folder showing without the path, which is my experience with AutoCAD Architecture.

Pendean - We are using AutoCAD LT 23.  Our operating system is Windows 10 Pro.  The screen shot is from the Sheet set manager model view tab.

Thanks for that: I'm in ARCH2023 and I see nothing different from either screenshots, and never seen anything different either in older or newer year versions.

Pendean,

It must have been that AutoCAD Architecture has the better interface.  Thank you for taking the time to look into this and helping me out!
