AC13: How do I reserve more than 1 sheet at a time??

Anonymous · ‎2009-10-06

I want to reserve a bunch of sheets in the layout book all at once. Is this possible? It seems like you have to individually click on each sheet end then hit "reserve." Also, When you are in a view set or in the project map, in the navigator there is a reserve button, but when I go to the layout book and click on a layout, there is no reserve button. I have to reserve it through the Teamwork Palette. This should be consistent, if there is a reserve button for the project and view map, there should also be one for the layout books. Does anyone agree?

Ok, so the "lead architect", who is also the "server administrator" and "project administrator", has the reserve option in his navigator. He can also change the drawing numbers on a sheet. Is this an issue with me not having permission to do this?

Laszlo,

Ok, I found the problem. In order to have the option to reserve a sheet, I had to have more permissions. In the BIM server manager, I changed my permissions from architect to lead architect, and I added myself as project administrator. I think it may have been the project administrator option that allowed me to reserve a sheet. Now I have no problems.

I believe this is to keep the "peons" from changing crucial project information. No need to alert Graphisoft, I do not believe this is a bug...

Steve,
Those are generic out of the box roles. You can make your own or customize what each person and/or role is allowed to do.

Glad you got it sorted out.
