This is not technically an add-in because you don't have to install it. Instead, I created a rule with iLogic that connects to this Sheet Configuration dialog box.

It basically provides a way for the user to edit the settings of the current sheet or add a new sheet. You can choose from existing sheet formats, or create your own sheet format based on new settings. This would be handy for use inside a "Master" drawing template where you contain all the sheet formats for your company and when the user launches the new file they can select from an existing Sheet format or create a new sheet based on a new configuration defined in this dialog box. It's free so I hope you like it.

To use this little tool you will need to download the attached zip file. Since this is not an add-in, it requires that the user set up the rule inside the drawing file (perhaps the template). Instructions for setting this up, along with a basic demonstration of this tool are in the video seen below.

And if you like what you see and you would like me to do something more custom to suit your needs, I just happen to be in the market for contract work or even a full time positions somewhere, so feel free to drop me a line directly by sending me a private message on MCADForums, or simply posting a comment on this thread. :wink:
