rename layout1 tab

Is there a program to rename layout1 tab to Paper?

Just right click on the tab and Rename. If you want it renamed permanently, rename it in your Template file.

where do i find the template file?

Might you be using the default acad.dwt by any chance or do you use a custom-made template?

Company standard We're not allowed to use anything else.

If it's a company standard, I would advise against changing the template file.

The template as remark stated :"acad.dwt" is the default one. This is the blank darwing that opens when you just open AutoCAD normally. (i.e. not clicking on a drawing file, But clicking the autocad icon to open the program)

To "save" the template so it will say something something other than layout 1 you need to...

1. First find the template (Probably acad.dwt)

2. Make changes in that template ( add layers, dimension styles, layout names, etc)

3. Do a save as and make sure you save the drawing as a .dwt (Drawing template) file.

You are right. I think I'll leave well enough alone.

Thank you one and all.

Run the ._Options command, go to > Files tab > Template Settings > Default Template File Name for QNEW.

This is the template that is used when you run the QNEW command.

If you run the NEW command, you are asked to choose a template from the directory stored in Files Tab > Template Settings > Drawing Template File Location.
