    In This Topic

    This is a listing of all the items currently on the drawing. Also included are library items which have no visual representation in the plan and items which do not represent any physical items such as freight etc, allowing pricing information to be added independent of any specific cabinet.

    All items added here will be included in reports and other exported information about the drawing, even if they are not visible in the plan view.

    In List View all you need to do is select the basic cabinet type and change properties for each cabinet as required. It is important, however, to understand that in "List View" you are setting up a job and amending cabinets for the current job only.

    Cabinet ID

    The ID in List View is useful for reporting purposes and corresponds to the cabinet Label ID displayed in brackets i.e. 002 is Floor 2 Door (2).

    The Select ID check box  provides the ability for quick selection or "de-select" of all items in the current list.

     

    The ID numbers are provided in List View irrespective if they are selected or not to show on the drawing.

    Renumber All Items  Renumber All Items

    In the example used above, there were originally three cabinets in the list and then the first one was deleted i.e. the List View shows ID 002 to 003.

    When the Insert > Renumber All Items button is clicked, all items will be resequenced. Shown below left, the cabinets have been reassigned ID's 001 to 002.
