AutoCad :: Title Block Template Drawing

Apr 5, 2011

I created a standard title block template drawing for my student classwork exercises, and when I constructed the title block I keyed in real dimensions to ensure the title block would completely print on a piece of 8.5 X 11 paper. Now whenever I attempt to draw a large scale drawing (say a 36" dia circle, it draws the circle well outside my title block. I know why this is happening, I just need some tips about how to allow a title block template to be constructed around my current drawing reguardless of the drawing scale.

AutoCAD LT :: Title Block Of Layout Template - Font Size

Feb 26, 2013

In the title block of a my layout template I have tables inserted for revisions, drawing type, numbering etc. I have type already inserted in those blocks that I typically click on and then type in what I need it to say. My template works on all my other drawings except a particular one that I am currently working on.

When I click on the type, it automatically increases from 3/16" to 8" and enlarges the box to accommodate the new font size.

I've attached a screen. The top is before I click on the word "type" in the lower right corner and the bottom one is afterward.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Setup Own Template Drawing With Title Block / Layers

Apr 2, 2012

I was presented with a little renovation project and need to setup my own drawing.  I've worked on CAD for a number of years while at a structural firm, an engineering firm and took classes in school but one thing I never had to do was setup was my own professional drawing from scratch.  I know enough that it's crucial I start off on the foot.  The engineering firm I worked at had everything ready so whenever I used CAD it was in an existing drawing or preparing a detail which the drafters imported.  When I did some drafting work for an architect, he also had the drawing setup for me.   

Since I'm now on my own I need to setup my own template drawing with a title block, layers, etc.  Whats the best route for setting up my own sheets?  

At my firm we always worked in a 1:1 scale & engineering units but since I'm doing floor plans for renovation work I plan on using the industry standard.

AutoCAD Inventor :: VBA Replace Title Block Definitions In Drawing From Template File

May 7, 2013

I have some code to replace the current title block with a title block from a template file. I just don't like how it adds a new title block definition named "copy of titleblock". I'd like to delete or replace the current title block definition so only the newly added one is listed.

 Sub test() Dim odrawdoc As DrawingDocument Set odrawdoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument If (odrawdoc.DocumentType <> kDrawingDocumentObject) Then Exit Sub Dim oTemplate As DrawingDocument Dim oSourceTitleBlockDef As TitleBlockDefinition Dim oNewTitleBlockDef As TitleBlockDefinition Dim oSheet As Sheet Set oTemplate = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(ThisApplication.FileOptions.TemplatesPath & "template.idw", False) Set oSourceTitleBlockDef = oTemplate.ActiveSheet.TitleBlock.Definition Set oNewTitleBlockDef = oSourceTitleBlockDef.CopyTo(odrawdoc) ' Iterate through the sheets. For Each oSheet In odrawdoc.Sheets oSheet.Activate oSheet.TitleBlock.Delete Call oSheet.AddTitleBlock(oNewTitleBlockDef) Next oTemplate.CloseEnd Sub

 I'm just being picky at this point, but I don't want a buildup of title block definitions. We reuse drawings all the time which is why a simple method of updating a title block would be nice. I can just imagine in some years time after a title block update or two there are 20 "copy of copy of copy of .................. titleblock" listed in a drawing file.

AutoCad :: Transporting Title Block Template Into Layout

Apr 16, 2013

I have previously drawn my title block in Model space but i now know the correct way is to draw it in the layout.

Is there anyway of transporting the title block template into the layout and then saving that as a template for my future drawings?

Or do I need to go back to the beginning and draw the title block again from scratch in the layout and then save that drawing as a template for future use?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Shifting Location Of Template Border And Title Block

Jun 26, 2012

We want to use our AutoCAD company standard templates within Inventor. I’ve followed the procedures to accomplish this under the heading:

Create a .dwg template in Autodesk Inventor from an AutoCAD .dwg template

This works without any problems.  Inventor is able to recognize the size of our template border (20.75” x 33”) and correctly selects a sheet format of 24” x 36”.  The template border is centered on the 24” x 36” sheet just as we would like it (see attached).

The template is used to create a new Inventor .dwg, and base views are placed and annotated.  No problems, everything looks good.  The new drawing is saved and Vaulted.  However, at some point Inventor "shifts" the location of the template on the 24” x 36” sheet format (see attached).  This action is unpredictable.  The drawing might be checked-out and checked-in several times before the “shift” happens.  When it does we have to re-locate the views and other text annotation to suit the new title block & border location.

How can we lock the position of the template border & title block?  (Should be noted that we need to keep our template positioned such that the bottom left corner is at 0,0,0 when it is opened in AutoCAD.)

AutoCAD Architecture :: Project Fields In Title Block Sheet Template

Jun 26, 2012

I've created a sheet template that includes Fields to populate the sheet with the Project Name and location among others like scale, etc. When I create the new sheet in the project navigator most of the fields populate with the correct information based on the parameters set in the project. However, it consistantly does not populate the Project name and location. When I click the field and ensure that the attribute is set correctly then it renders the correct information. The problem is this ends up being a manual operation yet it still reads as a smart tag. Why do these not populate automatically?

Here's my process:

Create dwt for sheet file and include xref of title block.

Create a block with attributes that link to AEC Project, CurrentSheetTitle, etc. and insert into dwt.

In project navigator I create new sheet and select my template.

Information does not populate.

But when I view the block and close (no edits) it then links.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Size Title Block Using Border

Mar 22, 2013

Is there a way to access any data of any Border in a Drawing files when creating a sketch in the file?

I'm trying to make a Title Block that take up the whole length of the Border bounded page and 10 mm high, anchored on the bottom.

Currently I had the Default Border "changed" by Inserting it and changing the margins to fit to approximately my printer's printable area.  It seems at this stage when I created a new title block defn I'm basically given a blank sketch with the origin at the bottom left as my only "snap point".

I found one through subject suggestion about using iLogic to change the size, but that isn't exactly what I'm trying to do as that seems just a switch for different Title Blocks that's been made up.

I thought about just drawing the title block in with the border, but I don't think that's the right way to do it.

Is there any way to draw your Title block in this case beside manually figuring out how big the Border is and dimension with that raw number?

(Just curious as it would be just a simple subtraction, but if I changed the Border margin I would have to repeat the arithmetic...)

AutoCAD Inventor :: Drawing Add In Title Block?

Jan 22, 2013

Is there an add in or something for faster type in the title block in a drawing? Name, title etc?

 Right now the author and date are automatically  but when i save the file to for example to "D1234 hammer" it becomes the part number.

I have to edit the title.

I want to save the file to "D1234 hammer" and the partnumber to be "D1234" and title "hammer".

IS there a add-in that I type the title and name and its auto fill the title block? Or do I have to create a custom title block so the drawing can understand to only to take the numbers from <part name> and the letters becomes <title>?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Get New Title Block Into Old Drawing

Aug 17, 2012

We are going to be making a new title block and I have been looking at ways to get the new title block into the old drawings.  It looks like the Inventor Drawing and Resource Wizard is the way to go.

The steps seem pretty straight forward and simple but I am not getting the correct results.  For the source drawing I select my new title block and leave the boxes for borders, my new title block name, and sketched symbols checked.  I then pick my drawing I want to get the new title block in.  On the last step I can select Yes or No and get the same results.  When I reopen Inventor and the drawing it still has the old title block in it.

AutoCad :: Inserting Title Block In 3D Drawing?

Sep 20, 2013

I'm having trouble inserting my title block in a 3D drawing. I'm kind of new to 3D modelling but it's probably a small mistake i'm making.

I started with my view in SE Isometric, drawed something and then I copy/pasted my title block from another drawing, all in modelspace.

My drawing is 3D and my title block is 2D but in the wrong position.
