Creating Sheets from Views with Ideate SheetManager

We all know and love how we can duplicate a sheet AND swap the viewports using Ideate Clone, one of the tools in our IdeateApps collection. If you want to clone multiple sheets at the same time, is there another way to do it?


Within 
Ideate SheetManager, another IdeateApps tool, you have the ability to create sheets from unplaced views.


Three Steps


1. Select the view or views that you wish to create sheets from

You can select multiple views from which to create sheets.

2. Choose an existing sheet to act as a template for the newly created sheets. Click “Create” and let Ideate SheetManager do its magic!
