I have trouble modifying the title blocks for the map book templates . Is there a specific folder that I need to save the adjusted title block in. Going through the block editor doesn’t work so I’m exploding the block and once I do that the links have been broken between the title block and map books.
View 2 RepliesHave more than one drawing template? (we use A and B size sheets)
My questions concerns, metric vs imperial A vs B vs C etc etc drawing sheet size title block does not scale down accordingly when change sheet size within an existing drawing template.
Is it possible to have one drawing template that can be toggle imperial vs metric, and then sheet size selected and then the title block scaled down or up accordingly? (I would assume this could be done using iLogic)
Or is it normal to have different drawing templates for sizes and units?

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe title blocks that we use have prompted entries in them and I would like to find a way using iLogic to copy the entries from one title block to another within the same drawing; i.e.. if the user decides to change from an A2 to A1 drawing.
I already have an iLogic rule which allows the user to change the active border, title block and sheet size based on a form selection but would like it to capture the prompted entries already entered and re-use them after the change.
I have a problem in which when i set up my title block templates, when i set them up and keep my template inside the dashed area the printed dwg is either cropped or too far inside so it has to be well outside at the top to print within 10 mm of the actual paper, attached is an image of how i have to do it to make it print within 10 mm of the edge of the paper print.

I wanted to be able to start new drawings with the title blocks and paper sizes already done.
But what happens when the beginning of a new drawing project is with a drawing that someone else has already done? I am starting a new project and I would like to focus in one one room in a large building. This means that I plan to end up with a 1:50 drawing of a room on my pre-set A3 sheet and title block.
Do I import this person's drawing into my drawing of the three title blocks in model space with the three paperspace tabs or do I import the title blocks into the other person's floor plans?
I'm going to take the computer home tonight so that I can set up as many drawing templates that I will conceivable need at work.
Are there any special ways to go about this or CAD standards that I should observe?
I mostly use A3 and A4 paper for architectural metric drawings.
Is it worth making me own templates so that I can just jump into future drawings or is it better to download templates from the internet?
i am trying to set up templates at a new job and i want to create templates with an xref for the title block so when we start a new drawing, we use the template, save to the project file and everything is there with our title block already xref'd. my problem is, the path on the xref'd title block stays the same and is still referencing the location of the file i used when creating the template. if possible, when i save the new drawing to the project foldeer i want the xref to also move to the project file and the path to the xref to change.

I found a template with two vertical images that I liked a lot, but all the options available have some sort of funky black outline around them! I can't believe they didn't just include one of the same without an outline. They really need to have the ability to develop your own templates!!
View 6 Replies View RelatedThere don't seem to be any title templates in my new Premier Pro CC.
I have also installed CS6 PP as I want the Encore program - the templates are loaded in that version.
This is probably very easy, but I cant figure it out. Whenever I try to type text on the spine of my lightroom book, Lightroom puts it horizontally. I like to rotate the text on the spine of my book by 90 degrees so that it reads from top to bottom, like on any normal book. How do I do that?
By the way, when I start a new book, the spine text appears correctly by default (rotated by 90 degrees). In my existing book, the text cursor appears only for horizontal flow however, despite using the same design template. Is this a bug or did I accidently change the orientation of the text?
I have a CAD file with a couple hundred detail blocks in it, and I am trying to standardize them without haing to block edit each detail block.
What i am trying to do in each block is as follows:
- Explode all dimensions, leaders, and blocks
- Change all objects to layer "0"
- Change all lineweights to default
- Change all object on colors 7 and bylayer to byblock
- Change all text and mtext to arial font
- Delete all points

I have made a template for my mapbooks and I got the main viewport, key viewport and adjacent map arrows to work great, but the title block is proving more difficult. I have tried it many ways, in a seperate drawing in model space which did not work, in the template as a block in a layout which came in, but did not allow me to edit any foelds unless exploded, etc, etc...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wanted to get opinions on the most efficient way of creating & saving title blocks, with regards to using them in future projects.
1. Create a title block in model space then save it as a .dwt file
OR
2. Create a title block in model space then save it as a block
I can't imagine there's a right or wrong way, just wanted get your input. Chances are you all know something I don't.
In a drawing file customer wants to create 2 title block. both the title blocks should be added to the same drawing. At any point of time only one should be visible to the user. Basically users in one country will see first title block and users in another country will see second title block.

How would I print REV A or C? I can do it now but I have to delete the other 2 drawings so it focuses on the only remaining drawing.

Im trying to make a small tool that i can share with other users that allows at the click of a button, a form to give options for titles & borders. Im pretty good with VBA but new to Inventor objects. The tool itself will change all of the borders & title blocks in multiple sheets to the selects ones on the form in one go.
I have the code set up to loop through the sheets and delete / replace all borders & title blocks and this works great. Im trying to find how i can loop through the borders & title blocks so that i can get them into a combo box for each. I cant find anything about this on the internet.

You will see from the attached screen snipe what I mean about being forced to insert it at the 0,0, coordinates. I'd like to insert it into clear space then scale it and move it into replace the existing logo.
I need to load a couple hundred drawings to Vault. Most, if not all, of these AutoCAD drawings use the 'smart title block' and I was wondering if there was a way to extract all the data from the title blocks into an excel .csv file to then be imported into Vault saving me SOOOO much time and work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow to manage adding titleblocks to sheets. On my last few projects I had x-ref'd in a titleblock which contained all of the generic info that was consistent throughout the whole sheet set. Then I created a block that I inserted into each sheet that I could edit and make sheet specific.
While this works, once you have insertion points correct, I was thinking about instead making the generic part of the titleblock a block also. My concern is that as I have revisions, the generic block that I would update would not "ripple" through the whole set quite like it did when I was x-refing it in.

I can't for some reason get this rule to work, simply want to be able to choose what title block to use.
I created a text parameter with the multi-values: TES ELE and TES EQU
I have 2 title blocks in my template called TES ELE and TES EQU
Here is my code, basically, I want to rule to apply the title block based on the selection, which will be done on a form.
If Title = "TES ELE" ThenActiveSheet.TitleBlock = "TES ELE"ElseIf Title = "TES EQU" ThenActiveSheet.TitleBlock = "TES EQU"End IfInventorVb.DocumentUpdate()ThisApplication.ActiveView.Fit
I have found many threads in this forum and have used their solutions for this rule, but for some reason, my rule will not select the title block and place it in the drawing.
