Hello,
I am having trouble using the Civil3D publish command due to the size and complexity of my files, which are very large and have several sheets. To avoid fatal errors, I often publish a minimum number of sheets. However, these errors still occur and, when a fatal error occurs during the publishing process, I lose all the sheets that were processed up to that point.
For this reason, I often resort to the plot sheet by sheet command, since it guarantees that, even in the case of a fatal error, I lose at most a single sheet, although I have to repeat the process for 500~600 sheets.
My goal is to automate this task using Dynamo, creating a batch plotting process. I have a page setup with all the plotting options already defined and I would like the names of the PDFs to be the name of the sheet itself. It would be necessary to select the sheets to be plotted and define a location to save the PDFs. The Plot command would be executed for each of the selected sheets.
I searched the forum and found some related information, such as using archi-lab, but I was unable to put together a solution that completely met my needs.
I made an extremely simple example file with the type of sheet/file that I usually use.
I would appreciate if anyone could help me.
