I) Overview

After installing the Duplicate sheet add-in, the add-in will be available on the ribbon tab with the name SLG and push-button name Duplicate Sheet.

When you click on the push button the main form of the add-in will happen.

II) Control

A)    How to select sheet and it’s viewport for duplicating?

You can choose which sheet or which viewport needs to be duplicated from the List of Sheet

**Please check both sheet and it viewport** 

B)    Sheet option Section 

-          Select Title Block: The list title block of the project which the user can select. If the user chooses the Original option, each duplicated sheet will have the same title block as each original sheet.

-          Sheet File: The number and name of the duplicated sheet can be renamed with an Excel file. The user just clicks on the checkbox then clicks the Browser button to load the Excel file.

**The sheet number and sheet name in excel should place at A1 column and A2 column at Sheet1 as picture below**

-          Prefix, suffix : Text in front of and text behind sheet number (sheet name)

Ex:  100 - Sheet01    => prefix100suffix - Sheet01 (for sheet number)

       100 - Sheet01    => 100 - prefixSheet01suffix (for sheet name)

**This option will be disabled if the option select Excel file to rename be checked **

-          With Views / Without Views: Duplicate viewports or not.

C)    View option Section

-          Duplicate Option: Basically, We have 3 three types: Duplicate, With Detailing, As a Dependent

**If the viewports cannot duplicate with detailing, the add-in will duplicate viewport with Duplicate type as default option**

-          Prefix, suffix : Text in front of and text behind View Name (Title Name)

Ex:  View Name    => prefixView Namesuffix

       Title Name    => prefixTitle Namesuffix

D)    Misc Section

-          Copy Legend (Schedule): There are 3 options for this: Make Instance, Duplicate. If the user selects make-instance, the legend or schedule just make-instance and place on the duplicated sheet, If the user chooses duplicate then they will be duplicated.

**If the list of sheet needs to be duplicated and it has some legends or schedules which have same parent schedule or parent legend, this add-in will just duplicate one time for that parent legend or parent schedule.

-          Copy outside elements: This option will copy all of the elements outside of the sheet. Some users want to make some items outside of the sheet, so this option is very important for the user's purpose. What kind of element outside will be duplicated? The add-in will copy line, detail item, detail component, detail group, text, symbol, picture, etc.

 The add-in does not copy the revision cloud.

E)    Which elements will be duplicate

The purpose when I created this add-in is duplicating sheets with 100%. The list below shows which element can be duplicated.

-          Sheet: All parameters including text, number, visible, and type parameter.

All parameters marked as red will be duplicated include Guide Grid type and Revision on sheet.

-          Title Block: All the parameters include: text, number, visible, type parameter will be duplicated.

All of the parameters as the red mark will be duplicate include Key Plan visible and Scale Bar Type.

-          View: The views will be duplicated to include position, rotation, and viewport type.

III) Limits

At present, the add-in will duplicate 99% of elements from the original sheet. So what is the 1% not duplicated? The answer is the viewport title location. This item is not the same as the original after duplicating.
