Sheet List Indexing

The Create Sheet List command compiles the current sheet border information for use as a sheet list index or worksheet.

To create a sheet list index:

1. Select Tools > Reports > Create Sheet List.

The Create Sheet List dialog box opens.

Click to show/hide the parameters.

Parameter	Description

Sheet No.	Displays the contents of the current title block selection
Add >	Moves a selected item from the US Arch Title Block Entries list to the Proposed Sheet list
< Remove	Removes a selected item from the Proposed Sheet list and displays it in the US Arch Title Block Entries list

2. Move the desired title block entries to the proposed sheet list to create the sheet list, and format the list by clicking Format; select whether to create a text object or worksheet from the list.

3. Click OK.

4. If the sheet list index is formatted as a text block, click to select the top left and bottom right corners of the sheet list area; the text wraps to fit within this width. If the sheet list index is formatted as a worksheet, click to add the worksheet to the file.

The sheet list index worksheet can also be added to the drawing from the VA Create Schedule command or the Resource Browser. From the Resource Browser, select Vectorworks Libraries from the Files list, and open the default architectural reports file that is included with the Vectorworks Architect product (see Resource Libraries). Drag the Sheet List worksheet to the drawing. The worksheet is populated with information from the objects in the current drawing.
