Master Layouts - which layouts are they used on?

gedzior84 — Fri, 26 May 2023 00:20:59 GMT

Hello.

Longstory short - I have maaaany layouts in my layout book, and maaaany master layouts as well.
I want to clean things up, and my question is:

Is there a way to know on which layout is a specific master layout used?
Whenever I want to delete a master, there is a pop-up saying, that this master is used somewhere, but I would like to know where exactly.

Thank you in advance

gedzior84:

At the top of the Navigator palette is a pop-up list, change its option to "Tree by Master".

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

Wow!

Everyday something new! I knew that this list was expandable, but I never checked these options.
Thank you very much!!! It helped me a lot!

As for my signature - I will surely do that!

It is also possible to create a Sheet Index, which can display the Master Layout the Layout is based on. You can even use the Master Layout in the generated schedule as Headline to group Layouts by Master Layout.
