and of course I can’t find it now…lol.
I use the Headers and Footers feature to add a Tag already, so that is one way to do it en masse

probably the same technique though.
Placing a Custom Tag and then a Custom sorting Template.
I made one for one of our customers that broke down the drawings by their nomenclature

I doubt I would ever suspect the software if a keystroke wasn’t working. I’d be wondering what was up with my keyboard.Good to know though.

There is an Overwrite Existing File checkbox on the Batch Summary dialog box.
Uncheck that if you don’t want your original file to be overwritten -

other than having to spend WAY too much time in hospitals on this vacation (thank goodness we get free parking), its been a much welcome amount of time off.
Don’t worry, most of the hospital time has been scheduled visits, there has just been a lot of them.
Here’s to a great 2026.
Can’t wait to do the full Unbound presentation to everyone. I won’t be abridging it like I did on the MCR, y’all will get the full meal deal 😉 -

the very first thing I would check is that all of your text is actually text and not an image. This could be the cause of the intermittent hyperlinking
Best way to check for that is to select your Select Text Icon (looks like a capital I with an A beside it) and then hover over what should be text. If it changes to a large capital I then its actually Text.
Start there and let us know.

I can deal with that in PQ 😉

I do. I use that for the Drawing package.
For this particular template, they use those codes as a prefix to their drawings labels, so it picks it up from the page label.

They made this available in 18.1 or something.

Ah, I see it now, under layer properties.
A bit tricky to get set up though, a lot of trial and error.
I guess we can reset the clock on when the last time it was that you taught me something eh? 😁

In the MAX Beta and things are stable.
My team is on 21.8 and they’re not reporting too many bugs
