Solidworks Plan tab same name as the file

2D plans

Hello

I'm looking for an easy way to get my Solidworks drawing tab to have the same name as the 3D file without having to fill it out manually.

Example: my Solidworks 3D file is named SWM-002568V.sldprt  the tab of my drawing should automatically have the same name without the extension SWM-002568V.

Thank you.

Theoretically, when you make a drawing and save, it names the file with the same name as the first part placed on the sheet. If I understood the request correctly, of course.

Thank you for your answers.

I know CTRL-C and then CTRL-V. What I'm looking for is that the "Sheet1" tab of the drawing has the same name as the SWM-002568V file (see attached image) and that it is done automatically.

Yes ronathan, I know that it names the file with the same name as the first part deposited on the sheet, but what I am looking for is the name of sheet1 has the same name as the part deposited and that it is automatic

When you register your part, you do in CTRL-C  and then when you do your MEP, you double click on sheet1 and you do the CTRL-V and your 1st tab will have the same name as the room as well as the MEP. That's why I told you about these shortcuts.

Hello

In my opinion it's not possible in automatic except maybe with the help of a macro ...

Kind regards

Hello @vitamines60,

Showing a minimum of consistency, if "Leaf1" is to be named after the project, what name would you give to a possible "Leaf2"?

Here is a macro that a former worker  had posted in the tutorials. I haven't checked if it works...

Sylk my job is to make a lot of plans for the realization of parts. My 1st sheet must have the name of the file for the 2nd sheet eventual I copy and paste and simply add F2.

Thank you ac cobra 427. I'll test it on Monday I'll tell you if it works

Ac cobra 427 when I want to download the macro, I realize that I have already tested this macro, but it does not work
