Editing Sheets

[AnaisR]

Hi,

If i enter a sheet and then modify it, is there any other way of saving this than saving a second sheet with the same name as the first that overwrites it?

cheers,anaisr.

Select the Edit Sheet from the Sheets button.

Make the changes and click on Done.

The changes should be reflected.

Hi katie,

What I mean is changes that cannot be done in the 'Edit sheet' dialogue box.

For example, if I want to change the view of the sheet, I need to go to the sheet, change the view, and then save a new sheet with the same name.

Is there any way around that?

I have posted this on the wish list before.

You should be able to uncheck "Restore View", set up a new view, the re-check "Restore View", and it should now restore to the new view when the sheet is selected.

But unfortunately, when you do this, it restores the view to the one you had when you originally saved the sheet.

This holds true even if you never checked the "Save View" checkbox when you originally saved the sheet! If you subsequently check the "Restore View" check box, it will return to a veiw you never saved in the first place.

The restore view checkbox really ought to restore to the view you are in when you check the box, not to the view you were in when you originally saved the sheet.

Or if some users like the current operation, you could have two checkboxes or radio buttons, one for "Restore to Original View", and one for "Restore to Current View".

Right now, the only way to save a new view, is to save a new sheet.

Might as well add my vote to this one. Many times I will have 10 -15 sheets for a dwg. set and something will need to be tweaked. A save current view command would be very helpful.

Will add this to the wish list.
