Step numbering
Step numbering updates as the outline is edited; child steps use lettered suffixes and can be grouped under a head step.

Features
Step images
Clipboard images are embedded with the step, scaled for practical document size and included in saved project files.
Completeness review
Completeness review flags missing step descriptions and highlights missing document metadata without blocking ordinary drafting.
Text and document exports
CSV and plain-text outputs carry the ordered sequence and metadata; images remain in the saved document rather than being embedded into those text exports.
Getting started
New to TW Sequence? Follow Build a sequence for the step-by-step workflow. Use Help by topic to find a particular field or control, and read Checks and limits before using the output.
Help by topic
Choose a topic for instructions, field guidance and controls.
Build a sequence
- Enter the project number, page number, element, designer and date on Info.
- In Sequence Editor, add a step before or after the selected row and write one clear operation per step.
- Use child steps for supporting activities beneath a main step. Reorder rows to match the intended sequence; child steps stay with their parent group.
- Add drawing references and paste a site snip or detail image into a step. Click a thumbnail to review it at full size.
- Use Review & Print to check completeness, then export CSV, copy a text outline or print/save the document as PDF.
Tips and field guidance
Use the row actions to add a step before or next. Use + Child on a head step for 1A, 1B… Paste Snip imports the latest Windows clipboard image; click its thumbnail to expand it in the step. Children move only among siblings under their head.

What a sequence is
TW Sequence creates a narrative outline. It is not a programme or Gantt chart: it does not hold dates per step, durations, dependencies, progress status or critical-path calculations. Use the project’s approved planning and temporary-works controls for those functions.
