Sheet Tab Reference (Document Settings)

Sets the default labels for sheets, and sets the colors for elements on sheets in a drawing or template.

Access

Ribbon: Tools tab Options panel Document Settings . In the dialog box, click the Sheet tab.

Default Sheet Label

Sets the default label assigned to a new sheet in the drawing browser when no previous sheet exists. Click in the label value box and enter the label.

New sheets use the label assigned to the first sheet and the label name setting has no effect. Labels on new sheets bear incremental numbers (for example, Sheet:1, Sheet:2, Sheet:3).

Sheet Formats

• Sheet Outline

• Highlight

  Sets the color of highlighted elements (when the cursor passes over them).

• Selection
