Sheet Index Count

I can create a sheet index no problem but is there a way to total the number of drawings? In schedules this is possible but I can't seem to do it with indexes.

I'm *still* having the same problem. I don't know if it's something that maybe it has to be reconsidered, maybe is not needed and that's why archicad doesn't add it... (???) But for me is still logical to have a layout number visible in the Sheet Index, specially if you have a large project with countless pages...
Still waiting for an alternative to this, I'm doing it manually... If anybody can help with the topic, will be much appreciated.

Thank you

I don't know if it can be done in the index,
but you can do it by adding text on your layout sheet
(below your index?).
"Insert Autotext" for "Number of Layouts in Subset".
