You find this functionality in the view settings and filter toolbar on the right side. You need at least the Project Editor role to add, edit or delete sheets.

Sheet is a general term used in Sphere XG, HoloBuilder and the JobWalk App describing a layout, a floor plan, a 2D schematics, and so on. In other words, a sheet is a 2D image or document that can be used to get an overview of a capture, for example a building. It is created by users, software or a CAD system. A sheet may include text, a legend and scale information.

Note that these sheets are only visible in Sphere XG. They will not be visible in the JobWalk App or the HoloBuilder WebEditor. If you want sheets to be visible in the JobWalk App or in the HoloBuilder WebEditor, you can add them as areas in Sphere XG. For more information, see Import an Area into your Project.

Click the icon in this toolbar to open the Sheets form.
