Section View Layout/Drafting Buffers

[getrekdent]

Hello,

I have been fiddling with some basic section views trying to understand the way Civil 3D plots Section Views when using the "Create Multiple Views" command. I want to be able to utilize my entire sheet whenever possible, but Civil 3D keeps all of this whitespace between each Section View. 

Is there a way to control this and set the horizontal and vertical buffers manually eg. 0mm, 0mm?

I've fiddled with the "Plot Rules":

Set the "Space between adjacent Section Views to 0:

Played with the "Plot area grid details", tried setting them smaller and larger... I want it to look uniform and professional but am having an issue accomplishing the correct spacing. 

This image is all I am able to accomplish so far. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I would like to have an output similar to this:

Hi @getrekdent,

This is doable if you remove data bands, create new group plot, and update buffer settings offset. See images below to guide you.
