The Title Block Manager can access the title block data only from loaded files. If other files are currently open in Vectorworks, a dialog opens select whether to load only the active file or all open files. To edit multiple title blocks with the Title Block Manager:Īlternatively, right-click the title block border and select Edit from the context menu, and then select Title Block Manager. Edits to title blocks made within the Title Block Manager apply to all the title blocks in a marked set, and some edits, such as edits to project data, apply to all title blocks in all the files. You can mark layers for inclusion in the current file and in additional external files. I suspect that everyone is focussed on next week's Design Summit.For files with title block border objects already added to the layers, the Title Block Manager provides a means of simultaneously editing multiple title blocks in a project. It doesn't feel like its had enough input from people who have to use it and it also doesn't adhere to established VW standards very well (Its also hard because there's very little focus from NV on these forums right now. This is a feature that would have benefited from an open beta process. It should resemble the new "Data" tab with direct entry. It resembles the old "Data" tab in the OIP. But as Andy says this is not a well implemented interface. Is this the only way to edit the Title Block data? At least it remembers which pane you were last on, so if you're editing title blocks it will open to Sheet Data each time. Just wish there were more beta testing on V1.0) (But I'm otherwise happy with many of the other new features which fulfill quite a few requests that have been made on the forums. Not sure what the design vision was here since this is regressive. What used to take one click now takes two! And you can't tab between fields. The only major flaw I've seen is the slower processing of entering data. Someone needs to rectify this situation IMMEDIATELY because this is NOT acceptable for a program that i have paid thousands of dollars for the title block should be the SIMPLEST part of the entire drawing, it shouldn't take you an hour and a half two put a title block on two drawing sheets. THEN.after all that, the project/sheet information DOESN'T EVEN CARRY OVER TO THE NEXT SHEET!!! What happened to the easy data entry box that allowed for quick labeling. Then after you have spent 45 min getting your title block in, getting it sized, changing the spacing from the edge of the paper (cause you cant just drag the thing over) you have a hell of a time to just enter in the data. My custom Title block from 2017 took 6 different calls to tech support to actually get into my drawing, then you cant scale the title block without editing the 2D component.each time that you use it. the way it worked in 2017 was perfect and i don't understand why it was messed with. So i am beyond frustrated with the title block issue.
