Hi there

Is there any clever ways of getting your floor plans to be in order without using numbers to get them into order?

i.e. I don’t want this

1. Basement floor
2. Ground floor
3. 1St floor

I want this

Basement floor
Ground floor
1St floor
Etc.

Thanks Craig

Add a shared parameter to views and sort on that using a personalised project browser arrangement. Your basement can be -1, ground 0, 1st floor 1 etc and it ought to read as you want it to.

However, personally, I find levels with names 0 FFL, 1SSL much more useful and I'm happy for the plans to start with similar names as they keep the browser window narrow.

You can also have a custom project browser arrangement. Go to Settings > Browser Organisation. You then can create a new view settings, eg by associated level, ie
Basement
Ground Floor
First Floor
Second Floor

is this what you are after?

Clever trick, Bill. I hadn't noticed that.
