Sheets and the register
Add, number, title and reorder sheets in the register, and read its warnings for duplicate and out-of-range numbers.
The register is the sheet list of the set. Every sheet is one row, grouped under its section and then its series. The order you see is the register order: it's also the order of the CSV, the Excel workbook and the issue sheet.
How the register is laid out #
- Section rows start each discipline: its code, its name, + Series, + Sheet to series… and remove.
- Series rows start each numbered block: its label, purpose, number range, description, + Sheet and ×.
- Sheet rows come under their series.
You edit sections and series right in their rows. See Sections and numbering.
Columns #
From left to right:
- NUMBER: the sheet number, like A-101. A
#means not numbered yet. - Sheet Title
- Series and Purpose: from the sheet's series. Change them on the series row.
- One checkbox column per issue track: is the sheet on that track?
- One revision column per issue, track by track: the sheet's revision in that issue. See Issue tracks and revisions.
- Notes
- !: a warning mark. Hover it to see why.
To move a column, drag its header. The column order is remembered on this computer.
Add a sheet #
Do one of these:
- On a series row, click + Sheet.
- On a section row, pick a series from + Sheet to series….
The new sheet takes the series' next free number (A-102 after A-101) and joins the tracks the series' last sheet is on. If the series label has no number, or its range is full, the sheet gets #.
To add many sheets at once, use Generate sheets or import a sheet list.
Edit a sheet #
Click into NUMBER, Sheet Title or Notes and type. Changes save as you go. Undo in the top bar takes back any edit.
Reorder sheets #
Drag a sheet by its handle at the left of the row. Sheets move only within their own series.
Dragging is off while the register is sorted.
Sort the register #
Click a column header to sort by it. Click it again to reverse. The sort applies inside each series, so sections and series stay together.
While sorted, a note above the register says so. Click Clear sort to go back to register order.
Show one track #
Click a track chip in the register toolbar, like Permit, to show only the sheets on that track. The diagram filters the same way. Click All sheets to show everything again.
Warnings #
A sheet row turns red, with a ! at the end, when:
- Its number is a duplicate. Two sheets have the same number (capital letters or not).
- Its number is outside its series. For example A-250 in the A-100 series (100–199), or S-101 filed under A-100.
Numbers like # or labels like A#-## aren't checked.
Remove a sheet #
Click × at the end of the sheet's row. It's removed right away. Use Undo if you didn't mean it.
