John Vancouver Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 How do I update the title block and project info on my borders. I went in the new title block manager, changed a bunch of the fields and hit ok expecting the borders of all my sheets to update but nothing happened. I looked for an update button in the info palette, the issue manager and the title block manager and I didn't find one. Any Ideas? I looked online nothing found. jt Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 remember that the new title block tool uses object styles for the title block. edit the title block style use the resource manager or choose edit style from the object info palette. Quote Link to comment
John Vancouver Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'm used to the 2012 issue manager. That work flow was to updated the project and issue information in that command and boom it updates the boarders and I print. Now I'm lost. I did modify the border style and block to customize them for my firm. Maybe I corrupted the style and text but I did what I would do in 2012, go in and just rearrange the title text blocks. jt Quote Link to comment
John Vancouver Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 Here is the file. Just simple Reno but I need to have the title blocks update. Note the project id is updated in the manage but not the actual boarder. Brad-5.vwx Quote Link to comment
John Vancouver Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 So I just open a new file with standard border and I still can't get my project name to show on the border title. Can some please tell me how to up date the border info or point me to a video on how to do?? I need to get a project out and I have spent hours trying to figure this out. Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 have a look at this webinar I presented the other day: https://novedge.com/webinar/259 Title blocks start at about 38min Quote Link to comment
John Vancouver Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 Thanks Jonathan. I was using the wrong field. "Project id" not "Project Title". It was good to learn how the text feels work anyway. I updated my border and it looks fine in the VW file but when I publish it to pdf's, some of the text comes out as squares. See my issue block and page numbers in the attached image. Any Ideas? JT Quote Link to comment
John Vancouver Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Any ideas anybody? I have re-plotted these drawing about ten times. I have to get these drawings out soon and it would be nice not to hand draw over the errors. JT Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Replace the font in those areas with arial and see if that works. Quote Link to comment
