Change a Drawing Version's Number
Objective
To change a drawing version's number to an existing drawing's number.
Background
There might be a situation where a drawing version was assigned the incorrect number during the upload review process, and you may want to change the version's drawing number to an existing drawing's number.
When you change a drawing number of a single version, you re-associate the version with an existing drawing in your project. The version that you've re-associated will no longer appear in the original drawing's Versions section, and will instead be associated with the new drawing that you've selected.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permission on the project's Drawings tool.
- Additional Information:
- A drawing with the number you want to assign this version to must already exist in the project's Drawings tool.
- If you want to edit the drawing number of all versions of the drawing, see Edit Drawings.
- If you want to reorder revisions of the drawing, click the grip handle icon next to a drawing version and use a drag-and-drop operation to change the order. See Reorder Revisions of a Drawing.
