"Sheet Number is already in use"

[RCockerillGE]

I have two building models in Revit in the same file. The problem is I'm trying to name both sets similarly and am receiving the error: Sheet Number is already in use. Previously I would have inserted a unicode character into the sheet number to trick Revit into allowing sheet numbers that look identical, however in Revit 2023 I can no longer do this because sheet numbers with unicode no longer appear in the sheet list when printing.

I can do a unicode character here.  2023.1.

[RCockerillGE]

But does the unicode sheet show up in your 'sheet list' while printing?

The new autodesk sheet list dialog doesn't display any of the unicode sheets for me

[barthbradley]

Sheet List does "spazz out" when placed on Sheet.

To clarify:

I'm not talking about the Sheet schedule.

I'm talking about the sheet list in the new selection pane (when printing) exclusive to Revit 2023:

Only the set without unicodes shows up in the list

Unicoded sheets show normally and can be added to sets.  Dumb question but did you scroll down the list?  They may sink to the bottom.

[RCockerillGE]

Its a completely valid question as unicode does bump stuff in a funny way.

I did scroll all the way through - no luck.

I'm going to try reproducing the results to verify that its not exclusive to the file.

FWIW: I have no like issues here either.  

[barthbradley]

Maybe they aren't included in that Sheet Set?

It appears that when using the 'left to right mark' unicode exclusively the sheet doesnt appear om the sheet list. No idea why, but its been pretty consistent so far.

I tested all the Unicode characters available, the only characters that allow the sheet to populate on the PDF Export menu are "US" and "RS". Unfortunately when plotting, it ends up plotting a square character on the PDF that isn't there when looking at the sheet inside of Revit. Not sure if anyone else has any other ideas on how to fix this?
