ACE 2009 Custom Title Block

ckann · 2008-10-07, 12:36 PM

I am trying to use a custom title block but the Title Block Setup cannot find the attributes I have defined. Am I missing a step? I have my block in Block Editor and have defined the attributes and have everything saved under that block definition.

I'll see what the help menu says for 2009. I have 2008 and will put together a small demo of how I generate a <project>.wdt file.

can you provide me the block, I can check and see what is going on. As far as I have experienced 2008 and 2009 are the same for this area. Just make sure you have ab attrbuted block and the tool will find all attibutes.

Can you please explain how to get this ab attrbuted block into the titleblock block.

Thanks

my experience with making a custom title block is that you have to remove the WD_TB that the program normally puts in for you, or it will not update properly. I scratched my head on this one for awhile. Hope this helps
