    Default Specify Layouts when Publishing

    Summary: The ability to specify certain layouts as "non-plotting or non-publishing" layouts

    Description: I would like to be able to select certain layouts when I publish. I have layouts that I never want to publish so it would be nice not to see those layout listed in the publish dialog box.

    How Used: This would help people who have layouts that are just for cad reference only, that doesn't need to be plotted. You would not have to remove all the unwanted layouts everytime you publish.

    Feature Affinity: Publish

    This can already be done by clicking a layout, hold down CTRL, pick the other layouts you want published, then right click and select "publish selected layouts".

    This was in reference to using the PUBLISH command, where you would have multiple drawings to plot at once, with multiple layouts in each drawing. There currently is, AFAIK, no way to select multiple layouts from multiple drawings when running the publish command. It's either all or none.

    You can do this now. Just set the plotter to "None" is each layout that doesn't need to be plotted. Even though it's included in the list in the Publish dialog, it will not plot.
