I am having an issue laying out some sheets in Revit. I have my old Autocad title block converted into a Revit title block. In Autocad I typically snap my square title bars to the corners of my guide lines. In my Revit file I have them as invisible lines. My issue is that I cannot grab the exact corner of the title bar square to have it sit perfectly in the corner of my guide lines. If I click the move icon I can snap to the " guide lines" but not to the title bar. I would also like to be able to snap my ground/floor planes to one another so they line up across the page in different viewports. I have attached jpeg of my zooming in further to the corner of my guide lines and you will see that my box ends up too far down. Does anyone know how to go about this? I would really appreicate it.
hi, did you use TAB to snap the corner?

It is a different process in Revit.
EDIT:
Oops, read the post wrong xD
Have a look on this video Paul Aubin done about guide grids, explains the function perfectly: http://paulaubin.com/blog/revit-guide-grids/
If you want part of the View to snap to the corners of the Guide grids, turn on this visibility of the Crop box, you can snap to the corner of that and move it to a guide grid snap, then turn the crop region off.
Hope this helps 🙂
As alisder.brown mentioned, it is a different Process and the solution is to use the Guide grid to align views so that they appear in the same location from sheet to sheet.
Here are more details from the help

Are you guys not looking at his question and the attachment before replying? He is asking to align a custom view title with a corner of the sheet border.
well there are two questions actually
Well since the view can't be snapped when is is dragged to the sheet or title block then guide grid could be used or use the move feature once it is on the sheet
I stand corrected.
Looks like the second question is answered. As for the view title, OP would need to manually nudge it to line up with the corner. A good thing is the other view titles on a sheet can be aligned horizontally or vertically with the first one easily.
