### Select Parameters

**Available Items** – all possible Sheets category parameters:

The Sheets can be grouped together in a tree.

For example, If **Sheet Number**, **Sheet Name** and **Scale** are selected in the **Configure Grouping** window, then the elements can be expanded, filtered, and quantified by these parameters.

The list of parameters comes from the **Select Parameters**.

### Create New Sheets

To create new Sheets, select a template from the list and hit **Create New Sheets**. A template is an existing Sheet with views placed on it.
