Title: Learning how to use the new Sheet Layout View feature
Post by: JOD on June 08, 2023, 11:45:23 AM
Hi Patricia,

I am having a heck of a time figuring out how to use the new Sheet Layout View feature.  Any detailed instructions or help I can go to to find this?  I tried the on-line Guide Book but it didn't seem to have this feature listed.

Thank You.

Hi there,

In the User Guide, you will find the Sheet Layout View section on page 58.

As you have my eBook for FP V2022, you will find a complete section with examples about the Sheet Layout View feature on pages 402 to 414.
In addition, in my eBook, you will find the Punchhelpers Buddy (as you can see in this image (https://www.punchhelpers.com/images/punchhelpers-buddy-click-new.jpg)) that allows you to search any subject in the eBook using words or sentences. See how it works on page 7.

Hope this helps.

Ok, I see it now on Pg 58 of the Users Guide.  Thank You.  My version of Adobe Acrobat doesn't seem to include the Bookmark feature where more in depth page details are found rather than the Table of Contents (pg 2)in the Guide.

May I ask what the TFP eBook would be named?  I either downloaded the into an obscure folder or missed downloading altogether.  I see it should have 600+ pages but I can't find any PDF file that would be that big when I open the PDF.

Sorry to be so computer illiterate. 

Thank You.   Jeff O'Donnell

Yesterday, I explained in this post (https://forums.turbofloorplan.com/index.php?msg=16814) how to set the bookmarks.

The zip file includes 3 files => the eBook (its name is "Training and Tutorials V2022 for Win") plus two additional zip files (interactive tutorial and rails sample). These additional files are just gifts and they are not related with the eBook. Each gift includes its own instructions.

Hi Patricia,

My computer person (wife) tells me that we have a limited version of Adobe Acrobat Reader (free version) and said that this version doesn't seem to include Bookmark capability.  We did follow your directions but couldn't find Bookmarks in the menu choices.

We found the TFP eBook Tutorial and have moved it to a place under the IMSI ikon on File Explorer.  I did open it to make sure it came in okay.  It shows 546 pages in the booklet so I think it is correct.

Will now try to learn and, as someone once said in several of her posts, Practice, Practice, Practice to learn my way thru the program features.

Thanks again for your help and will probably be asking questions again as I go along.
