How to change the Letter assigned to first section/detail view

Max Bradley Apr 14, 2016 7:36 AM

At some point in the past the person who set up our Solidworks templates set the default to use letter 'B' for the first created view. This annoys me greatly and now that I have taken control of this I want to change it back to 'A'. I am sure I have seen the setting for this somewhere but I can't find it anywhere now that I want it. Can anyone help me locate it?

I am using Solidworks 2016 SP2.

  You will need to do this in the templates.

  That is where I thought i had seen it. However, mine says 'A' and yet the first view always comes out as 'B'.

Is there any chance there's a hidden detail or section view there?
