How to automatically add a table to a new drawing

Drew starts every new drawing from the Blueprint you selected. The Blueprint stores all your drawing preferences and that includes tables.

You can view all your table settings in the Tables tab:

This is what happens when Drew creates a new drawing

When you create a new drawing from a Blueprint, we go through all your tables and add every table that has the checkbox Add to first sheet checked.

Some table types are only added when the model in your drawing is of a certain type:

• Bend table: the model needs to be a sheet metal part.
• Bill of materials: the model needs to be an assembly.
• Cut list: the model needs to be sheet metal or a weldment.

Other table types have no extra checks, so we always add them.
