DODGE Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Hi guys Just a quick question re the paperspace tabs. I quite often have upto 20 to 100 paperspace tabs at one time. I know this must be a dumb question, but is there a quick way to navigate through them. For instance if i want to go from number 1 to say number 50 in one go how do i do this. Also is there a way to change the paperspace tabs to diff colours like in Excel. Thanks Guys Dodge8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADMASTER1128 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 You can use CTAB and then enter the tab name/number that you want to navigate to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADMASTER1128 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 You can also try this LISP from LEEMAC. http://www.lee-mac.com/tabsort.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never been a fan of multi-layout 'sheet' drawings; instead I use single layout drawings with Sheet Set Manager. Also is there a way to change the paperspace tabs to diff colours like in Excel.

rkent Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 At the command line you can type CTAB LAYOUT50 I like having multiple tabs but with that many you may want to also use Sheet Set Manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 GOTO GOTO includes my clumsy fingers version note Model is 0 every other product has a GOTO. If you think you have a hundered and want last do 111 (defun gotolay ( / alllayouts lay num) (setq num (getint "\nEnter tab number")) (setq alllayouts (vla-get-Layouts (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))) (SETQ LAYNUM 0) (vlax-for x alllayouts (Setq laynum (+ 1 laynum)) ) ;total number of layouts (if (> num laynum) (setq num (- laynum 1)) ) (vlax-for lay alllayouts (if (= num (vla-get-taborder lay)) (setvar "ctab" (vla-get-name lay)) ) ; if ) ; for ) ; defun (defun C:goto () (gotolay) ) ; defun (defun C:goot () (gotolay) ) ; defun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
