Hello everybody.
I have a deal with AutoCAD. I'm not a very friend with AutoCAD, I know how to use the elemental things and options in 2d-3d editing tools, but I found a problem here and got seriusly stuck. I'm more Autodesk Inventor kind of guy.
Recently, a work plane came up to me in my workplace, actually created in Autodesk Inventor with a lot of feature on its own native code.
One of the greatest thing Inventor has is that can saves you a lot of extra time with its title box, with a lot of simple dynamics options.
Among of them, specially when you create upto 60 or more sheets, is the sheet counter, both: <Number of Sheets> and <Sheet Number> are specially useful to us, Mechanical Engineering designers.
But my problem here, is that dynamical codes get lost in the exports to .dwg and I got a lot of work to do modifyng every single sheet assigning those options, and don't you even imagine to think if you add a new sheet in the model view.
I've been searching for a while about how to create a dynamic block that understand that it needs to show a new number, a successive number, every time you insert the same block in your model view, but I couldn't find anything helpful.
Is there a way to create this? In such case, which is the simplest way to do it?
Thanks for your time, it is much appreciated.
