1. Purpose
Renumbers the sequence column (STT) for a batch of sheets in one click, instead of typing every cell in the schedule by hand. Use it after duplicating sheets or reordering the set: the numbers rerun from the start you choose.

3. Steps
- Select the sheets to number in the Project Browser, or select a sheet-list schedule sitting on a sheet. [image 01: selected sheets in the Project Browser]
- Click Set number in the VP_LAYOUT tab, Sheets panel (inside the sheet-number group).
- The Set STT dialog shows a start-number prompt (default 1) — type the first number and click OK. [image 02: start-number input dialog]
- The tool numbers the sheets consecutively from that start in the current order. Open the schedule to check the number run. [image 03: numbered STT column in the schedule]
4. Real-world example
12 freshly duplicated typical-floor sheets, STT column still blank. Select all 12 in the Project Browser, run the command, type 1, OK — the 12 sheets carry numbers 1 through 12, matching the floors.
5. Common errors
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
| "Select Sheets in the Project Browser or a Schedule on a Sheet before running" | Nothing selected — select sheets (or a sheet-list schedule) first, then rerun |
| "Invalid start number" | The box only takes integers zero and up — retype the number and click OK |
| "Schedule ... is not a Sheet List Schedule" | The picked schedule is not a sheet list — pick the right sheet-list schedule, then rerun |
| "Schedule ... has no sheets to number" | The sheet-list schedule filters everything out — check the schedule filters |

- Duplicate sheets — duplicate the batch before numbering.
- Create print set — bundle the numbered sheets into a set for printing.
- To shift sheet numbers up or down in bulk (for example after inserting one floor), use the two sibling buttons in the same group: Increment number and Decrement number — select the sheets to shift and click; the tool adds or subtracts 1 from the numbers and reports the result.
