Sheet Set

In nanoCAD system you can create a sheet set – conventional folders where layouts and named views of project drawings are collected and arranged. Using a sheet set, for example, it is convenient to plot, as the output process will include only project layouts needed at the moment, even if they belong to different drawing files. To work with sheet sets, use the Sheet Set Manager.

Sheet set data are saved in .dst file. There are two types of sheet sets: set of sheets (includes drawing layouts) and set of views (includes model named views).

NOTE: Including layout or view into a sheet set does not change their real position, they stay at the same places as before.

Data on the composition of the document set and its parameters are saved in a file with the *.dst extension. Document sets can be of two types: a layout set (includes drawing sheets) and a view set (includes model named views).

NOTE The inclusion of layouts or views in a document set does not physically move them anywhere; they remain in the places where they were before being included in the set.

 

ATTENTION! It is not recommended to include the same layout into different sheet sets (you should better create another file with an xref to the main one).
