Sheet Index

I am trying to create Plan/Profile sheets in ORD and It seems to me that my Sheet index within explorer isn't functioning properly.  Once I create the said named boundaries, I try to drag the models into my sheet index to edit but nothing happens.  

I also noticed that I'm missing quite a few Icons within the sheet index and I'm assuming this has something to do with it not functioning properly:

 

I have right clicked over the icons and selected "show all" but it shows that all of the available Icons are showing within this workspace.  

Could I get a little direction on how to go about this issue? 


Thanks,

Andrew

  • I had the same problem. 

    This solution was great, but I need the same folders (Inside the sheet index) of the others projects.

    Do you know how can I open the ORD and all folders created in sheet index?

    Thank you.

  • You need to create a template dgnws file that contains your standard sheet index folders and properties.

    1. Find an existing WorkSet that has the Sheet Index defaults you need. This will be your template .dgnws file

    2. Copy that WorkSet's .dgnws file to a new location (WorkSpace\Standards might be a good choice)

    3. Then define the _USTN_WORKSETDGNWSTEMPLATE variable to point to the location of your new template .dgnws file.

    When you run into a corrupted sheet index in the future, just remove the bad .dgnws file, then relaunch ORD and it will create a new one using your custom template.
