Hi Christian, I’ve recently tried to create one of these (on a PC) and discovered that MAC computers (much to my fiancee’s delight) have superior table features that PC platform’s running SU & layout currently don’t have. I would love to get this feature up and running as I’ve just created a tende…

Now that SketchUp 2018 has a LayOut API, I’ve developed an extension to auto-generate a table of contents/sheet list for any LayOut file. You can try it out here: https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/sheet-list-generator-layout I’d be glad to hear any feedback that you have! Thanks, Andre…

Thanks Andrew, good on you! However I’m running SU & Layout 2016 as we are not happy with some of the rendering and other functionality in 2017 and 2018. Once these issues are resolved we’ll happily make the change to SU2018 & layout.

It would be great if LayOut would have Table of Contents supported nativity. This is very frustrating when I need to create this list manually, and when the list is ready I need to add some extra pages to it. It should be generated automaticity.

In my autocad days I made complex spreadsheets like the one attached, It has drawing categories, numbering, name, scale, revisjon, revision date, …

I just keep mine super simple…of course because they are manually entered. The drawing pages themselves contain more info eg Version number & Last modified date. I dont add that to the index. In LayOut the i use the Page Name field to describe the Drawing Number (which goes in the lower-right hand…

[image] AK_SAM: The Table of Contents tool in InDesign is brilliant, by the way. Being able to choose what elements are added to the table is excellent. In LO’s case it could include all the autotext fields eg Drawing number, status, revision, date, author, reviewer, etc. (by the way we also ne…

Sorry to be late to the party. Here are some samples of recent work. Currently manually entering these and altering them as needed. Would love it if we could pull in data from the Page Name / Page Number / Etc. [Screenshot 2021-09-02 at 17.48.47] [Screenshot 2021-09-02 at 17.48.05]
