Good question, @Elliottk ! The view sorting output is used to sequence and organize the views on the sheet.
For example, when creating exterior wall elevations of a building, this feature ensures that the views are placed in chronological order.
How?
-
Create a bundle that groups the following tasks:
- Create views by category (select exterior walls)
- Create sheets by category
- Place views on sheets
-
Adjust the parameter value of the “mark” parameter for each wall based on how you want the views to be distributed.
Example:- Wall 1 has the parameter “mark” value of: A
- Wall 2 has the parameter “mark” value of: B
- Wall 3 has the parameter “mark” value of: C
-
Set the view sorting output to:
- Parameter: Mark
- Sorting Option: Ascending
-
Glyph will ensure that the views are organized in the following order (A, B, C) before placing them on a sheet.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Miguel
