    Default Plot Stamping

    This has probably been asked a million times, so here is million-one.

    I need to know if there is a way to create a unique plot stamp that differs a little bit from what Revit automatically offers.

    I noticed Revit has individual tags you can place that assign current date or time or file path, but nothing that would tell which network user printed the drawing.

    This is what I want to do: I wish to create a single plot stamp that establishes in the following order - <file path and name>, <date and time>, <network user>

    If anyone can help me out with this would greatly appreciate it.

    Similar question but simpler. I'd like just to have a plot stamp with the date but not the time.

    I you use File Path as your Parameter and you use work sharing then the local username would be part of the filename
    that's how we do it
    if you don't use worksharing maybe using the Drawn by parameter would help
    or create a Printed By parameter. but in all this cases you have to add manually text

    bill i don't think you can get rid of the time in the parameter you can always put
    a Masking region on top

    but why bother?
