Project Automatic Sheet Numbering

[omorah]

Hello folks,

I use Sheet Set Manager ( AutoCAD 2025 ).

I have been searching for reliable automated method of numbering a project, instead of numbering all sheets one sheet at a time. All field numbers are on Paper Space. I am still searching for a LISP, or other method to achieve my goal.

Cheers

@omorah just to follow up this post

There is lots of posts about "Sheet X of Y" using fields in an attribute in a title block, Start with a good one by "Lee-Mac" 

https://lee-mac.com/layoutfield.html

 Do a google you will find lots of examples. I just use a simple lisp that updates 2 attributes in all Title blocks located in layouts.

Lee-Mac's page was my first port of call. I was disappointed when I did not find such; the "Layoutfield" did not click in my mind. I'll check it our soonest when my work load reduces. I already did the 83 sheets manually. I will report back.

Thanks for pointing me to it. Well appreciated!

I use a Field and create diesel expression for the page number  $(substr,$(getvar,ctab),7,8).

This will strip the LAYOUT and leave 2 numbers. 

For the number of pages, I create a field and in Drawing properties I define the # of pages.

All the numbers update with the regen all.
