    Default Need a Client Project Number field for title block that is project-wide

    Working with an industrial client who has their own title block, and thus their own project number field. I have created the title block, and added the Project Number field along with our logo, which will contain our company's project number assigned to the project. However I need a project-wide (or type parameter field) for the client's project number so that I don't have to always type it in on every new sheet.

    I created a shared parameter for that field, loaded the sheet and parameter into the project, and created a project parameter from that field. I can set the parameter to "Sheets", but it only allows it as an instance parameter. If I try to create it as a Type parameter, Sheets is no longer available as a category. Neither is Project Info.

    Is there any way to add a project-wide parameter, or at least a sheet Type parameter, for this Client Project Number?

    You almost got it - its a mind trick!
    Add it as an instance parameter under Project Information.
    Project information only has one instance which is project wide, if that makes sense!

    ohhhh got it! I could have sworn I looked for Project Information as a category for the parameter yesterday, but in my blind fury of trying to get the thing out the door I must have missed it.
