Egan Sheet Matrix

Introduction

Are you tired of manually renumbering views on sheets in Revit? Look no further than the Egan Sheet Matrix application. This powerful plugin automates the process of renumbering views on sheets according to a user-defined matrix, saving you time and increasing efficiency. In this review, we will explore the key features of the Egan Sheet Matrix app and how it can benefit your workflow in Revit.

Key Features

The Egan Sheet Matrix application offers a range of features that make view renumbering a breeze. Here are some of the key features:

Automatically Renumber Views On Sheets

The app automatically renumbers views on sheets based on a user-defined matrix. This feature ensures consistency and accuracy in your numbering system, following the Uniform Drawing System/ Drawing Area Coordinate System of the U.S. National Cad Standard. The app can also be customized to meet the specific requirements of your company, offering flexibility in implementation.

Only Numbers System

In addition to the standard Letter-Number system, the Egan Sheet Matrix app introduces a fixed-number system matrix. This new feature assigns numbers by adding them together instead of combining them, providing a unique and efficient numbering system. A sample preset is available on the Settings Form, with additional matrix possibilities on the Egan BIM Resources website for further customization.

Typical Module Numbering

The app renumbers any detail placed on a sheet or moved on a sheet according to the assigned title block module. This ensures that details are correctly labeled and organized, streamlining the documentation process in Revit.

Enable/ Disable By Sheet

The app provides a sheet parameter, "Skip Egan Sheet Matrix," which allows users to disable the app for specific sheets where renumbering may not be desired. This feature is useful for sheets containing 3D views, door details, and title sheets, giving users control over the renumbering process.

Enable/ Disable By Titleblock Type

The app is based on the title block type, ensuring that only title block types with a sheet matrix assigned will have details renumbered. This feature simplifies the renumbering process, focusing on specific title block types for efficient workflow management.

Enable/ Disable By Project

To disable the app for the entire project, users can choose not to assign matrix settings to any title block types or use the settings dialog to remove all assignments. This flexibility allows users to control the app's usage based on project requirements, ensuring seamless integration with existing workflows.

Conclusion

The Egan Sheet Matrix application is a valuable tool for automating view renumbering in Revit. With its user-friendly interface and customizable features, this plugin streamlines the renumbering process, saving time and improving accuracy. Whether you are working on a small project or a large-scale development, the Egan Sheet Matrix app can enhance your workflow and boost productivity. Give it a try and experience the benefits of automated view renumbering with ease.
