Hi
Im after some advice really on the best way to save drawings.
Obviously the drawings will have individual drawing numbers, but ialso save the name of the drawing with this...ie.
'12345 End Bracket.slddrw'
This helps in identifying the item as well as number.
If i set up a border to auto fill the drawing number with the filename, it obviously puts the whole name in. Not really a 'drawingnumber' so to speak.
In the border drawing title, i then also put the drawing name i.eEnd Bracket.
How do other users set up their drawing file systems ? Do you havea seperate drawing list, or can one be generated into excel ? Forexample, if i save the drawing file as the number, with thedescription as the title, can i export an entire folders drawingsto create a drawing register with number and title automaticallyinto an excel spreadheet ? We tend to save individual projects wework on in their own folders, so it would be nice to have aregister that accompanies the folder with all drawing numbers anddescriptions.
Is there anyway.....or even, does this make any sense ?!!
