Changing Sheet numbers/order in an IDW?


Recommended Posts

Posted

i was wondering in inventor 2010 is it possible to change the sheet numbers or order in an inventor idw? or maybe insert a sheet in between other sheets and in so doing have the other sheets renumber themselves accordingly? i have had a look in the help section on inventor and i have searched the site and can't find anything relating to this? :(

 

so far the only thing i can work out is to copy and paste them into a new drawing in the order you want them. however there are alot of sheets in the drawing i'm working on and don't want to have to do that.....:(

 

someone please HELP! :cry:

Drag and drop in the browser doesn't work for you to automatically re-order and re-number? Works here.

You can only drag the sheet that is active. So double click (in browser) on sheet to move and then click and hold to drag to new location in list of sheets. All should renumber.

:oops: I have just realised I'm working in 2009 (only for this client. we normally working 2010) :oops: I have tried the drag and drop but it only works on the views, not the sheets. What I really need to be able to do is insert a sheet in between say the 4th and 5th sheets and the 11th and 12th sheets and 16th and 17th sheets and get everything else to re-number itself accordingly. It would seem that 2009 won’t let me drag and drop sheets. :( is there a way to "insert" sheets maybe? :unsure:

:lol:ok i just made a lier of myself! :lol: you just have to hold your mouth exactly right to get it to work. :lol: feel like such a tool now! :lol: it only works if the pointer is in just the right zone in the browser. thanks for the help. :thumbsup:
