About When to Start With Sheets

Sheets are the final output of a building design. You create sheets after you have created constructs for all parts of the building model, along with the necessary model views, detail views, and section/elevation views. You then drag the views onto the sheets to create sheet views.

Designing a building is an iterative process. You will revisit planning stages and make changes to constructs, elements, and views. These changes are reflected in sheets.

Sheet with building plan

Keep these points in mind when creating sheets:

  • The content of a sheet depends on the views that are referenced into it and the constructs referenced into the views.
  • The viewport settings of a sheet view are defined in the model space view placed on the sheet from a view drawing.
  • A sheet contains all plotting-specific settings and title blocks.
