Ortho Matchines and Lables

In Plant 14, where is the option to edit the Matchline text from and Ortho generation? Currently it says N.470'-0" - I need it to output as MATCHLINE N. 4+70'-0". Is this possible? Also why can I not edit the layer settings in Ortho until after it is generated. Ex. Viewport comes out on layer zero/white and the Matchline come out on a Matchline layer, but there is no Matchine layer created before. I am using "Use 3D Model Layers" option so changing the setting there doesn't work. Am I missing something? If I create Matchline Layer in my template will it use those setting? But then how do I get the viewport to go on a viewport layer? Thanks.

I'm guessing this is a no then. Really would like to edit the Matchline properties and text. Can anyone help? Thanks.

JoeKay,

 

The Matchline annotation is just text. You can edit it after creating the view to say what you want.

 

As for Ortho layers, you need to make sure the layers and colors are setup correctly in you Title Block template (*.dwt) file. Then inside the project setup you will need to map the layers as needed.
