View/Sheet Sets for Export

When exporting a model to various formats, use tools on the Export dialog to select the views and sheets to include. Save the selected set for later re-use.

To create or modify view/sheet sets, first open the related Export dialog: click File tab ExportCAD Formats, and select the desired format for export. Use the following tools in the Export dialog.

  • Export. Determines the set to display in the View/Sheet list. This list contains all user-defined sets and the following default sets.
    • <current view/sheet only>. Displays the currently active view or sheet.
    • <in session view/sheet set>. Enables Show in list, so that you can filter views and sheets for the entire project or established set.
  • Show in list. Contains filters to broaden and narrow the available views and sheets of the selected set to output:
    • Views in the Set
    • Sheets in the Set
    • All views and sheets in the Set
    • Views in the Model
    • Sheets in the Model
    • All views and sheets in the Model

    The model-based filters list views and sheets from the project, disregarding the chosen set. View and sheets are listed in alphabetical order.

  • Check all/Check none. Select or deselect the listed views and sheets.
  • Set Manager tools. Buttons that create, modify, and delete sets:
    • (New Set). Creates an empty set.
    • (Duplicate Set). Creates a copy of the active set.
    • (Rename Set). Prompts to rename the active set.
    • (Delete Set). Deletes the active set.
  • View/Sheet List. This table displays the views and sheets filtered by the Export and Show in list options.
    Note: Click a column header to sort the list.
    • Include. Exports the view to the output file.
    • Type. Displays an icon representing the view type: plan views, sections, elevations, 3D views, and sheets.
    • Name. The name of the view. Double-click the name to see a thumbnail of the view in the preview pane to the left.
