Hey guys
i wounder if has a way of using mapkeys or troutgh the config.pro, of selecting a format for the first sheet of the drw, and a second format for the others sheets.

Best answer by BenLoosli

A format has 2 sheets in it. Sheet 1 and Sheet 2, which is used for all added sheets.

You could build the sheet 2 format like you want, assuming it is the same for all subsequent sheets.

If the sheets have multiple formats, then Ken's suggestion of replacing the format for each sheet would be needed. This can be done with a mapkey but not in a config.pro setting.

If you want to have different formats for different sheets of a drawing you just need to add a sheet, then right-mouse-button the tab for it at the bottom of the screen, and pick "Setup". Change the format to whatever you want. I don't know how things will work if you want to print or create a PDF, you'll have to experiment with that.

      We do the same as @BenLoosli where you modify the second sheet of the template(s) to be used for the second and any additional drawing sheets.

      We have numerous named templates in a folder that is stated in our config.pro.
