How to sort/move/revise Sheet Numbers on a Drawing List?

[PinRudolf · Accepted solution]

Sheets seem to be sorted alphabatically on sheet number; select the sheet and change the sheet number property should do it.

Or if you don't want to change the sheet number: add a parameter to the sheets for order priority (for example a number value.) Use the schedule to order first by property Priority, then by Sheet Number. Hide the Priority Column in the schedule afterwards. 

You could give sheets you want on top priority value -1, the ones you want on the bottom of the list priority value 1 and all other priority value 0.

The Sort function did not sort the Drawing List sequentially. Anything else to try?

The method @PinRudolf suggested should work.  Perhaps we are both misreading you.   Sounds like you want change the order of the sheets in your "Drawing List" (e.g. Sheet List).  Is this correct? Or, are you wanting to change the Browser Organization?  The approach would be similar, if this is what you are wanting to do. Can you clarify please?

Ow right! Sorry, I misinterpreted the question!

The sorting algorithm uses some sort of ASCII sorting method. Very similar to this but some special characters are moved to a different location. 

Drawing "INFO.- 02" misses a space after the dot. If you would rename it to "INFO. - 02" it should be back in place.

"Cover" seems to be in the right spot using the above sorting method though, do you want to have this above "CODE-01" or on top of the list?

To get something at the bottom of the list you could use the previously discussed method with the extra parameter, that should do it. Then hide the sortOrder column. See below example:

To add to that;

You seem to want to get the Electrical plan at the bottom. Why don't you just fill in the disciple value and sort to that?
