importing site plan w/ many classes

[digitalcarbon]

i am importing a site plan that has many classes into my template file that has many classes. i want to put a "z-" in front of the site classes so they are out of the way of my class system. any way to do this w/o doing it individually?

I would be very interested if there was but have been unable to find could be one for the wish list.

What i have done is in my template drawing is set up template classes ie aa-int wall so that i don't have to continually edit classes

hope this helps

I asked about this last week. A few members said that such a utility exists. However, no one has been able to definitively direct us to where one might obtain this mythical tool.

Create a script using RenameClass procedure.

Mechanix - an excellent idea!

Send me an email if you wish to get a copy of the script.

It is mac based and I am not sure if it works on PC.

A class prefix added capability for such scenarios gets my vote.

It is tedious having to do it manually.

could we not have a class "folder" that we can call "bob's site survey" and drop all his classes in it. then it never mucks up our class list and if he sends us a update for some reason we can just cut and paste w/o having to match his "property line" to our "z-property line"
