Wishes and feature requests

• Optionally have a spread sheet view or grid to edit the values in.
• To manually rearrange the sheets or subsets and view categories.
• Rename categories. (Can be done with help of our JTB DST Tool)
• To be able to plot using for example AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT.
• Ability to rearrange the “Locations” (folders) under the Model Views Tab and the same ability to rearrange the “Categories” under the Sheet Views Tab.
• Support to manipulate the .APJ project files for AutoCAD, Inventor and more.
• Support for AutoCAD Electrical toolset's project-based system Project Manager. An ASCII text with a .wdp extension defines each project. 
• The ability to move sheet views from one sheet to another, while maintaining linked callouts. ref
• Add new or delete custom properties.
• Change case. (Workaround is to export to Excel, change case and import)
• Spell check. (Workaround is to export to Excel, spell check and import)
• Delete selected sheets or subset including sheets.
• Tool to help migrate data from old title blocks with normal attributes to attributes with fields connected to the sheet set.
• Create a new sheet set from scratch based on data in an Excel file or the like with either using existing drawings or creating new ones. (Can be done with help of our JTB Sheet Set Creator)
• Enable the use of page up / page down for moving from one sheet to the next while maintaining the focus on same property (for example, editing sheet title on page 5, press page down, and your cursor is in the position to edit the sheet title on page 6.. page 7 etc)
• Ability to add prefix or suffix to an existing property, including the ability to add to multiple sheets (similar to indexing’s functionality, but maintaining the existing value for each page).
• To sort properties in a custom order. Saved settings in a separate file saved in same folder as the DST. Still this sort order will not show when you run SSM within AutoCAD.
• Create subsets.
• Duplicate existing subset.
• Ability to remove multiple subsets at once or even deleting a subset and all the sheets associated with it. Having to delete multiple sheets is at once is excellent but would like to do the same with subsets.
• Edit subset properties.
• Edit subset custom properties. Not yet available in AutoCAD's Sheet Set Manager.
• Add alphabetic indexing as an option to Sheet Indexing.
• Combine Sheet Sets / Merge Sheet Sets. (Can be done with help of our JTB DST Tool)

• Edit saved sheet selections.
• Rename subsets within the application. (Can be done with help of our JTB DST Tool)
• Rename drawings similar to what is possible in the Sheet Set Manager by adding sheet number to the file name.
• Rename Sheet Custom Property names and Sheet Set Custom Property names. (Can be done with help of our JTB DST Tool)
• Include all functionality that SSM has. (this is not likely to happen)
• Edit Sheet Views information. Possibly export/import to Excel.
• Rename renumber Sheet views.
• Support for cloud storage like Autodesk BIM 360. 

If you too have a need for any of these wishes please contact us so we know how big the need for it is and can prioritize accordingly.

"I have been using this for years. ... if you're using sheet set manager, this program is a must have. You can renumber hundreds of sheets within seconds. The investment is well worth it." - James Mcclendon

"JTBWorld has some really great tools on his site. I actually bought a personal license for his Sheet Set Property Editor that makes backups of your DST file each time you open one in the application. If you use Sheet Set Manager for your projects, I'd recommend getting yourself a license as well. It's so helpful." - Archie Dodge

"I've been using this for years, it's straightforward, constantly updated, extremely useful for fixing bloated sheetset managers that end up with hard coded paths pointing to null server locations and other problems easily edited with notepad++" - John Hammer

"Sheet Set Savior - I purchased the full version and its worth every penny. If you deal with Sheet Sets often, especially large lets, this product will save you time if you have to renumber a set i.e. "5 of 80". It took me about 20 seconds to renumber a 120 page plan set." - James Mcclendon

"This program is one of the best values for the money we spent. I have mentioned this to management several times. The program and the support is above and beyond. "

"I love the SSMPropEditor, by the way. It's the coolest thing since sliced bread."

“I love your SSMPropEditor. I’ve used it on two major projects this past week and it has saved me at least a day, maybe two, over others here not using the SSM. The SSM speeds up productivity, but the SSM Properties Editor makes it feasible considering you can have titles 64 characters long and longer, plus special characters. The ability to change properties on multiple sheets at once is something that really makes this worth having. I was able to change 45 sheet title blocks in a matter of minutes.” - Archie Dodge

"I've just sent out a final issue of some 40-50 drawings for a project that I've been working on all year. I only needed to use the Prop editor once, but it worked 'exactly like it said on the tin'. Excellent! Why don't Autodesk do this already?
Great product." - Happy customer.

I've purchased The SSMPropEditor and It's the best investment I have made in my life. I'm editing custom sheet set data regarding drawn-by and checked by and lot of other data for hundreds of sheets in seconds while it took me days to do it - quote on AUGI

Thanks for your support Jimmy. We managed to rename the Layouts as well. This app deserves 10 stars unfortunately I can only give 5. Best AutoCAD app available out there. - Francisco Barbieri

A new customer about SSMPropEditor: It's like Christmas and Birthday together! :-)

Really wish I would have had this program several times in my career.  It would have saved me a ton of work.

"Excellent!!! Huge time saver
I haven't done extensive testing on this app yet but it's already saved me tons of work. Templates are great but there are simply times when you need to "retrofit" elements to existing sheet sets. In my case I was looking to roll out a drawing revision block that is driven by Sheet Set custom properties across +15 sets with 20+ sheets. This app has allowed me to just copy/paste. Honestly I think this functionality should be baked into AutoCAD from the get go but JTB World has done a great job filling the gap! I strongly recommend it."

"As a Cad Support person with Brisbane City Council (Australia) I have been responsible for the implementation of Sheet Set Manager within AutoCad and AutoCad Map 3D. This initiation was overall excepted well, however one of the few complaints I have received is the inability of editing multiple drawing (often in excess of 100 drawings) Titleblock information (SSM Titleblock Fields.

I found "SSMPropEditor" on JTB World's Website (a website I visit regularly). I organised for an evaluation licence and used SSMPropEditor on a number of large projects Brisbane City Council are currently involved with. All Cad Users involved with these Projects and using SSMPropEditor commented how much easier and quicker it made editing mutiple drawings. The main comment was ... "when can we buy it".

As a result Brisbane City Council will be purchasing "SSMPropEditor" (multiple copies) and are extremely happy with exactly how this software works. It enhances the use of Sheet Set Manager within AutoCad products.

A big thank you to JTB World"

"I believe everyone should be using AutoCAD's Sheet Set Manager, as it greatly improves drawing management. I also believe everyone should be using your Sheet Set Property Editor and Sheet Set Path Editor. Both tools greatly improve AutoCAD's Sheet Set Manager. Our users have indicated that using your software allows them to update the title block data more effectively and efficiently, thus saving time with drawing revisions and submissions." - Keith Biggs, CAD Technical Coordinator, RF Binnie & Associates Ltd.

HOLY COW THERE MR JB where has this software been all my life, thanks for taking off at least a day of frustration per job now it takes only 15 min.

"This tool is a lifesaver!"

"I would be lost without this APP!!! Such a huge time saver!"

What I have used it for today, it’s awesome.  I hate to think how many hours I’ve wasted without it in the past. - Kevin

This makes a WORLD of difference applying the same properties to multiple custom sheet properties!

I really appreciate your support. SSMPropEditor is by far the best app I've seen for AutoCAD it will safe us a lot of time. We will be certainly buying a license.

"Thank you again for such a wonderful program and the support that you have given since our purchase.  This has to be one of the best values for our money. Highly recommend this program for anyone who uses SheetSets."

This software is a huge boost to production!
