Open Multiple Plan Sheets

En Español

We know that you’ll often reference and work on multiple plans sheets in a project at the same time, so you have the ability to open multiple plan sheets at once and quickly navigate between them.

Open plan sheets will appear as tabs along the top of the PLANS & TAKEOFFS canvas area. You can click and drag the tabs to arrange them in the order you want and then click the tabs to move from one plan sheet to another.

TIP: You can also open a plan sheet directly from the Takeoff List (Takeoffs tab) if you've grouped the list by Plan Name. Just hover over the plan name on the Takeoff List and click the Open option that appears to the right of the plan name.
