Vault indexing Autocad Title Block

Hi, is it possible to index multiple attribut title block for all tabs using the same attribut name? (Attribut name is ''Title_Block'')

Exemple:

File number is ABB-PANEL-00001.dwg

Layout1 ''Title_Block'' showing a door

Layout2 ''Title_Block'' showing a back plate

Layout3 ''Title_Block'' showing a Hinge

Layout4 ''Title_Block'' showing mounting feets

Etc...

 

The content of each Tab, are different; Drawing number, Part number, Descriptions, etc...

Layout1 Drawing number=DOOR1, Part number=10001, Descriptions=Door assembly

Layout2 Drawing number=BACK_PLATE1, Part number=10002, Descriptions=Plate assembly

Layout3 Drawing number=HINGE1, Part number=10003, Descriptions=Hinge detail

Layout4 Drawing number=FEET1, Part number=10004, Descriptions=Feet assembly

Etc...

 

How can i made a Search in Vault Pro 2014, to find the information on all the Layouts Tabs?

 

For the moment, the Vault seems to see only the first tab in the drawing.

 

Thank's!

Alain

DWG Attribute indexing will only read from one of the block instances.  The behaviour you are seeing is therefore considered "normal".

If you have content indexing enabled on your vault though, you would be able to search though based on any text string, attributed or not.

Thank's Ryan,

The drawing I was looking for, was already in the Vault, but was not re-indexed from the Server Console. That why I did not find it. Now everything is working.

Thank's again!
