FAQ: How do I Set Up Project-Aware Settings for a Sheet Set?

Connected Support Files for cloud-based sheet sets can be set up with the Options dialog box in the desktop app.

1. Open a drawing from the Autodesk Docs project.

   Browse to a drawing file on the Autodesk Projects tab of the Start tab or open a cloud-based sheet set in the Sheet Set Manager and then open a drawing in the sheet set.

2. With the drawing file open, right-click the drawing area and choose Options.
3. In the Options dialog box, Files tab, do one of the following:
   • If you don't see the Set Up button along the top, the project has already been configured. Continue to the next step.
   • Click Set Up along the top of the Search Paths, File Names, and File Locations list of settings. Follow the on-screen prompts to configure the project, and then continue to the next step.
