The left side of the plugin window contains a list of sheets of the current document. You must check the sheets you want to duplicate. You can also specify the number of copies of each sheet. Each sheet in the list has a Duplicate name field that allows you to specify a new name for duplicate sheets. If you expand the sheet, you can see the list of views, schedules and legends placed on it.
Search by name/number – text field for searching from the list of sheets. Works "on the fly" – enter a value and in the list there are only those sheets in the number or name of which the specified text is present. The search is case sensitive
Select all sheets – check the checkboxes on all sheets in the list or uncheck all the sheets in the list.
– opens a dialog for searching and replacing text in new sheet names:
The right part of the window contains settings for duplicating sheets, including settings for duplicating sheet contents.
To the right of the drop-down list of configurations, there are buttons that allow you to create a new configuration , duplicate a configuration , rename a configuration , export and import a configuration, and remove the current configuration .
In this group, you should specify which sheet content you want to duplicate. For some items, when you select them, additional settings become available.
If you do not want to duplicate all views, schedules or legends placed on a sheet, you can uncheck the checkboxes next to the unnecessary items by expanding the list under the corresponding sheet.
When duplicating a sheet or views to specify the uniqueness of a duplicate, function add the numbering to the sheet number or view name. Numbering is added at the beginning or end of the sheet number or view name, depending on the option selected in the window. The numbering can be separated by the symbol selected in the drop-down list by enabling the corresponding option. You can also add a prefix and a suffix for the number and name of the duplicate sheet or view. In this case, the plugin will continue to number without taking into account the prefix and suffix of the sheet number. For example, if you duplicate a sheet with the number А50, the prefix В-, adding the numbering at the beginning using the separating character "." will result in a new sheet number В-1.А50.
Do not add numbering if possible – when this checkbox is checked, if the sheet number, view name, schedule name or legend name will be unique with a prefix and/or suffix, the numbering will not be added.
