Modifying Sheets, Drawing Sheets Set, and Subset Properties

Drawing sheet sets, subsets and sheets have properties, such as titles, descriptions, file paths, and user-defined properties.

Right-click the name of the drawing sheet set, subset or sheet in the Drawing Sheet List and select Properties displays the corresponding Properties dialog box.

Custom Properties

You can specify custom properties for storing additional information about the drawing sheet or drawing sheet set.

Usually, custom properties that apply to the entire drawing sheet sets are useful for storing information specific to a project, while custom properties specified for drawing sheets store information specific to individual sheets.

Examples:

  • A custom property indicating the project name applies to all drawing sheets of the drawing sheet set.
  • A custom property indicating who reviewed one drawing sheet applies only to individual sheets within the drawing sheet set. 

You can use custom properties as fields in your drawings. See Inserting Fields.
