addy 0 Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) Hi All, i'm trying to add the drawing and the date and time to my custom title block. I already have auto sheet layer naming and can link my records to my record format. What i'm missing is the suffix or prefix code for date and time and drawing title. I can not find it the VW manual. I'm using VW 2010 Can someone help please? Thanks Adriano Edited April 19, 2012 by addy Quote Share this post Link to post
Christiaan 974 Posted April 19, 2012 Do a search for "title block" in Vectorworks Help. It's the first result: "Creating a Custom Title Block in Vectorworks Design Series" Quote Share this post Link to post
addy 0 Posted April 19, 2012 I did that but is does tell you how to add the date and time or document title. I want it so it updated it's self.. Quote Share this post Link to post
Christiaan 974 Posted April 19, 2012 What date do you want to use? A revision date? Date of first issue? Tile is: P_Drawing Title Or for multi-line: P_Drawing Title# Quote Share this post Link to post
addy 0 Posted April 20, 2012 revision date.. would be good. Also P_Drawing Title does not get the name automatically from the drawing title. It only allows to put the field on all title blocks. I kind of what to make my own version of the drawing label tool but in a title block. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post
Christiaan 974 Posted April 20, 2012 You have to link them to a record format. A better way might be to copy one of the existing Custom Title Blocks into a fresh file and edit that to see how it works: Applications > Vectorworks > Libraries > Defaults > Sheet Border - Title Blocks Quote Share this post Link to post
