Drawing Title Block
The commands below serve to define the size of the format of the drawing, and therefore the title block.
Keyboard Textual Menu Icon
“Title Block|Title Block
Size|Standard”
The command picks the format of the closest standard size.
Keyboard Textual Menu Icon
“Title Block|Title Block Size|By
Drawing Limits”
In this case, the format size is determined by the drawing dimensions in the 2D window.
Keyboard Textual Menu Icon
“Title Block|Title Block Size|By
Current Window”
If this command is selected, then the format size will be determined by the dimensions of the current 2D
window.
In the latter two cases, the automatically calculated format height and width will be entered in the drawing
status (the command “ST: Set Model Status”). The format itself will be assigned the “Custom” value.
Drawing Notes
You can enter the mode of creating drawing notes with the command “Insert Drawing Notes”:
Keyboard Textual Menu Icon
“Title Block|Drawing Notes|Insert”
Upon calling this command, a pane is displayed on the screen, in which you can enter the drawing notes. The
drawing notes are a paragraph text by default, therefore the automenu provides the same options as those
available when working with paragraph text (see the chapter “Text”). It is possible to insert fragments of
frequently used text from dictionary, and also use variables and their respective values (the option –
Insert Variable tab). Note that if the “Transparent Text Editing” option is set (the "ST: Set Model Status"
command, the “Preferences” tab), then you can edit text and variable values by pointing the cursor to the text
pane and clicking .
Keyboard Textual Menu Icon
“Title Block| Drawing Notes |Edit”
The “Edit Drawing Notes” command serves to edit the contents of the drawing notes.
Drawing notes location on a page, its format and initial contents are defined by the special hidden
“Text” created preliminary in the title block. This Text is named “DrawingNotes” and created the
way that its position and size are dependent on the position and size of the title block.
