Getting past all the various inconsistencies, I have managed to create eight differently oriented tabs, angularly spaced around the compass, but I've put them into their own "Blocks" folder within my "Drawings" folder.
I can import one such block into my main drawing, but when I try that from the next block in my list, LibreCAD puts it in with the first one along with several opaquely named copies, some of which are blank, and renames most of what's there. When I ascertain which ones I want to keep and delete the rest, I find that all but one of the remainder are now blank. If I were to leave well enough alone, I would end up with umpteen copies, blank files, etc. from which I would have to again ascertain which ones are useful and make up my own scorecard in order reliably to pick them out for later insertion at the appropriate places in my drawing.
Is there a less tedious way of doing this "tabulation" of my drawing ?
Best regards,
