Text Macro's for layout

[stevesakiwi]

Is there a text macro for Sheet Index that is linked to the title's on consecutive Layout pages?

I typically have the Sheet index on page 1. When I insert a new page or change the location of info in Layout, I have to go back to the Index & manually change the Sheet # & Description.

 

Callout Text macro's

Simlarly, is there are macro that links the layout page number to the page number in a Callout....typically the bottom number in the Callout.

Ideally, this should be linked to the Callouts placed not only in layout but in other views: eg Plan, Section, Elevation etc.

Both Revit & Archicad have this feature....saves time & ENSURES continuity.

 

TIA.....Steve

as for part 1 if you have your pages data put into each page using the page layout information dbx and have checked show in index it should all work.

the cross sections when sent to layout will auto show where they have been sent ie page number. need to be set up in the defaults as auto.

the connectivity is nowhere as good as most other programmes thou.
