We are currently setting up preference files for our company and we have adopted the ALDOT configuration files and are using them as a base. When trying the sheet index, no tools show up. Does the sheet index have anything to do with ProjectWise? We also have it set up where the work set is locked, could this be an issue?
Hello Cory, my name is Wole. I saw you asked this question 7 months ago about the sheet index which is identical to some issues we're facing. I followed the thread today but thought I'd just reach out and see if you ever found out the issue. Thanks!
The sheet index by far has been the most pain. We updated to 10.12 and reconfigured our settings. From what I have gathered, the sheet index is controlled by worksets. So, we opened up worksets and started using them by project. This opened up the Sheet Index, but we still have yet to produce a set of plans in it. The latest problem we are having is that it looks good on the print organizer within the sheet index but will only print the title sheet then lock up on sheet 2 of X. Due to time crunches, I have not spent much time trying to figure it out. Most of my down time has been updating configuration files to better fit our standards. I have gone back to the normal print organizer like I am used to from InRoads/V8i. Print organizer still picks up sheets created from profiles and cross sections so it gets us by for now.
Much appreciated, Cory! I feel like we're getting close to the solution with our Bentley consultant and will reply here if we have any success. Have a good night.
Hello, Have you had any luck with resolving the missing sheet index tools? im running 10.11 and im having that issue.
So, I just got with our SME to see if it was fixed. It was all related to the dgnWS file.
Troubleshooting Steps to fix the Sheet Index dgnws:
Thank you for getting back. There was a recent updated to ORD 10.11, version 10.11.03.002 that i installed, I restarted, and the sheet index tools are now back. but there continues to be something wrong with the workset where i can't add the sheets, I'm guessing it might have to do with what you just described. will try to troubleshoot the dgnws. Thanks again!
