Changing the Location of a Schedule Using Grips
Use this procedure to relocate a schedule table using the Location grip. For
schedule tables, the Location grip is restricted to movement in the XY plane.
You can enter specific values for distance for both the X and Y dimensions.
You can also change the location of a schedule table using the Properties
palette.
1 Select the schedule table you want to change.
2 Select the Location grip.
3 Move the schedule table to the desired location, and click; or enter
a value, and press ENTER.
If you want to enter a specific value for the second direction in
any edit mode (for example, in the Y direction when editing along
the XY plane), press TAB to cycle to the second direction.
You can also lock the movement of the schedule table along a
specific direction. If you enter a value for either of the dimension
directions in the current edit mode and then press TAB, the
movement of the schedule table is constrained to the second
dimension direction. When editing along the XY plane, for
example, you can enter a value for the X dimension, and then
press TAB. The X dimension is locked at that value, and movement
of the schedule table is constrained to the Y dimension direction.
4 Right-click, and click Deselect All to turn off grips.
Changing External Source Properties of a Schedule
Use this procedure to create a schedule table that contains property data from
an external drawing such as a project drawing.
Schedule tables can contain information from external references and block
references if it exists in the same drawing as the schedule table. Optionally,
schedule tables can specify an external drawing. The information is scheduled
as if it were an external reference in the same drawing as the table. The
advantage is that the graphics of the external drawing do not need to be
generated in order to fill out the data in the table.
1 Double-click the schedule table you want to change.
2 On the Properties palette, expand Advanced, and expand External
Source.
