PM Master sheet with editable fields

Anonymous — Fri, 19 May 2023 14:08:36 GMT

Is there a way in PM 3.0 to create a master sheet with fields that could be changed in the individual layouts?
I know I could create auto text, but that’s limiting to the information used.

For example I would like to have a field for “area” where I would change the number in that field manually for each layout.

Also with the same rational, I would like to place a PMK in my master sheet, then on each layout be able to replace it with another PMK (while maintaining it’s settings ( i.e. scale, output colour..) instead of having to place it in the correct location with the right settings every time..

Thanks,
If this can’t be done than I guess I’m pasting this message into the wish list..

Unfortunately, you cannot currently do what you are asking in PlotMaker. You are limited to stay within the abilities of the Autotext feature - you could try to create a format for the Autotext to simulate what you want...

Same with your PMK - Master Layout request.

Looks like it goes to the wish list.

Paste this into the wishlist, and don't forget the poll!
