TITLE BLOCKS

[COXFORD812]

HI EVERYBODY!

I HAVE A SOMEWHAT STOOPID QUESTION...

I RECENTLY JOINED A FIRM THAT DESIGNS FOLDING AND MOVEABLE WALL PARTITIONS, I REPLACED TWO DESIGNERS THAT WERE BASICALLY CRASHING INTO EACH OTHER CONSTANTLY AND NOW FIND MYSELF PICKING UP THE PIECES HERE.  IN THE SITUATION I AM AT NOW IS VERY SIMPLE, BUT AS I SAID BEFORE THE TWO BEFORE ME I THINK MAY HAVE FUDGED THE FAMILIES FOR IT UP A BIT AND I AM JUST NOT SEEING THE ANSWER IN FRONT OF ME, I HAVE TWO DIFFERENT TRACKS, ON THE TITLE BLOCK WE SHOW THE TRACK FOR THE PROJECT, BUT WITH TWO DIFFERENT TRACKS I NEED TO DISPLAY TRACK A AND TRACK B ON SEPERATE TITLE BLOCKS, BUT IF I CHANGE ONE TO TRACK A IT REFLECTS THAT TRACK ON ALL SHEETS, AND I CANNOT GET THE TITLE BLOCKS TO SHOW FOR EXAMPLE SHEETS 1-4 TRACK A SHEETS 5-10 TRACK B...IF IM NOT VERY CLEAR I APOLOGIZE, BUT ANY IDEAS WOULD BE WELCOME

THANKS AGAIN,

-CHRIS OXFORD

Hi Chris! Welcome to the Discussion Groups!

I follow this as you want to display a Label on the Title Block that is in addition and separate to the Sheet Name, correct? If that's the case, you can create a Shared Parameter (Text), add it to your Title Block family, and then create a Label for this Parameter. Once loaded into the Project, this Parameter will be available under Properties for the Title Block so you can add an appropriate value to each of your Sheets as needed.

If you need any more info or if I am mistaken, don't hesitate to post!

btw - When one types in all-caps in a forum like this, it's interpreted as yelling and some consider that to be rude.

This is very helpful, thank you very much.  and i was not yelling, i forgot my caps were on and just came out of drafting and once i realized it was all caps (bout 90% of the way through the post) i was too lazy to go back and retype everything...but not too lazy to explain it here :)-thanks again.
