    Default Sheet Size Parameter

    Is there a way i can put a type parameter on my title blocks which i can preset to which ever size the sheet is ie. A0, A1, A2, so that when I schedule a drawing list i can have the parameter in there? This will be used for billing purposes.

    I don't think so.
    Shared parameters for sheets are instance only.

    As Gonçalo says, type parameters don't apply to sheets, only instance parameters. Also, "titleblock" is not a property of the sheet. I wish it was. Therefore, the solution is an instance project parameter that applies to sheets. Then you can select multiple sheets from the project browser, enter a value for sheet size, and then add that parameter to the schedule. In the illustration provided as an example, there is a parameter called "Sheet size", which has been translated and added to the Sheet index as "Tamaño", showing "ARCH D" as the size of the sheets. Just be aware that this information is not tied to whatever titleblock is used on the sheet. It's just text data, that would need to be manually updated if the titleblock changes.
