\ud83c\udf81\u00a0<\/strong>New!<\/b><\/span> Create Custom Title Blocks<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is the most highly requested Drawings feature of all time, so we\u2019re so excited to get it into your hands! The title block above does not look like the one that appears by default in our 2D Drawings workspace, and that\u2019s because it\u2019s been created with our new Edit \/ Add Title Block functionality, now available with this update!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get to it by starting a drawing, selecting the existing title block, and right-click. You\u2019ll see options to Edit Title Block and Add Title Block. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3 ways to add custom title blocks<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Upon selecting the Edit Title Block option, you\u2019ll get a dialog telling that the default one can\u2019t be changed, and that you\u2019ll have to add a new title block. You choose how you want to start, either from the existing default title block, from scratch, or from an existing DWGs with title blocks you already have. Once everything looks good, click OK and you\u2019ll enter a title block editing environment, much like the Sketch, Form, or other environments where you work in and \u201cfinish\u201d to get out of.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Familiar tools for block creation<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some of you eagle-eyes will notice that we\u2019ve repurposed some of our Sketch geometry creation tools to be title block geometry creation tools. Remove existing title block geometry by selecting and simply deleting there. Drag the end of a line to extend. All points snap into place. After you\u2019re happy with your edits, you can save to the existing drawing or save as a new title block template. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the Modify panel, you can Move, Rotate, Copy, Trim and Extend your lines. In the Text panel, you can input your custom text or place existing attributes into the appropriate cells and they will auto-populate once you finish the edit.<\/p>\n

Deep dive coming soon<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Oh yeah, there is definitely more to this than what was mentioned here. For a deeper dive on how to best use this functionality as well as some pro tips, look out for a blog post from the Drawings team coming soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Improved!<\/b><\/span> Projected geometry now obeys Construction setting<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We found a workflow issue where if you used the Sketch Project tool while the Construction toggle was turned on, the projected geometry turned out to be regular sketch entities and not construction sketch entities. Now all projected sketch entities will obey whatever the Construction toggle tells them. <\/span><\/p>\n
