List of plans from PlotMaker

Miquel Garcia — Fri, 19 May 2023 14:08:18 GMT

Is there any way to export the Navigator's structure in PlotMaker in text format to obtain a schedule of drawings/plans?
If not, I really want to post a wish

AFAIK, no.

Definitely post that wish. While you are at it, how about adding an automatic table of contents/drawing index feature? It could be just a special form of Title Type with some new more powerful autotext.

i was not dreaming... there is an option, only when printing from pm3.1 publisher under viewset publishing properties: 'print set structure first". checking this box sends the set structure sheet to your default printer. but it only sends drawing names, no sheet ids. i imagine this is not very useful in its present state, especially since it can only be printed, not exported.

You could always print to PDF ( then PDF>> PNG)

that would work for now. text could be added in the pdf, or copy text from pdf and edit it. but we need more than another 'workaround'. but at least it is a start to a drawing directory.
additional options would be great, this should be a linked tool for us. more votes @: http://www.graphisoft.com/community/archicad-talk/viewtopic.php?t=1389 may help!
