You can rename your Pages in the Cover Sheet or right from the Image Tab. We recommend that you rename pages to easy-to-recognize names so you don't have to try and remember the file name or the page title.

Note
Let On-Screen Takeoff rename your entire plan set in moments. See OST - 03.08 Use Auto Name to Speed Up Bid Setup for more information.

Renaming On Cover Sheet - Pages tab

Open the Cover Sheet to see all the Pages in your project.

OST Cover Sheet

If you just need to do minor "clean up" of the Sheet No.'s and Names, you can do it in the Cover Sheet. The only issue is you don't get to see the Page as your changing its No. or name.

Renaming on Image Tab

Note
Before you spend any time renaming your Pages, let On-Screen Takeoff do it for you - use Auto Naming and we'll provide suggested Sheet No. and Sheet Names for you automatically (we can even organize your plans into "Disciplines"). See Using Auto Naming to Suggest Pages Names and Sheet Numbers.

To rename an Image page, click Edit > Rename Page, or right-click on the Image View window and choose Rename Page, and enter the new name. The new name appears in the Pages field of the Navigation toolbar and on the Pages tab of the Cover Sheet.

ALT TEXT

Renaming a page does not alter the actual file to which that page is linked - it only changes the name displayed in On-Screen Takeoff.

Use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons to quickly navigate through your plans to rename them - the Image window updates to the new page so you can see what you are renaming.

When Renaming Pages, press the <Enter> key on your keyboard twice after typing a new name to cycle to the Next page in the project.

Next, it is a good idea to collate your Pages so they are in a logical, progressive order.
