I’m trying to update my own titleblock, and am getting stuck with one item, making the 'Revision' text individually editable on each sheet.

My title blocks have the following drawing number reference; for example, 04-204 GA03 Rev C

04-204 = the Job Number parameter
GA 03 = the Sheet number parameter
Rev C = and the revision number.

Job Number is applied to all sheets
GA 03 is applied to just that sheet
Revision number should relate to that drawing sheet only, however, I cannot make the Revision number work.

Either I make it a plain text box, and it’s on all sheets and un-editable, or I make it a parameter. Making it a parameter means when I make drawing GA03 revision D, all the other sheets also become Revision D!

As a follow on and in a similar vein, I also wish to provide a piece of text above the titleblock that summarises the changes within that revision (again, obviously relating to that drawing only), but my attempts to do this results in the summary being applied to ALL sheets!

The revision parameter needs to be an instance parameter - not a type parameter.
