Additional backtick (`) in WDT file appear in Title Block Setup dialog

[yoonghm]

I have a project LAB2 which uses a project-specific WDT file: LAB2.wdt.  The file has the following entries

BLOCK = TITLE_BLOCKS_A3
SH`# = SHEET
SHTS = SHEETMAX
TITLE`#2 = DD1
DATE = PLOTDATEYYYYMMDD
TITLE`#1 = LINE1
DRAWNBY = LINE3
CHKDBY = LINE8

I guess that the backtick in the file was created by ACADE to escape the hex (#).  However, the Title Block Setup dialog show TITLE#1 and TITLE`#1.

However, choosing TITLE#1 and TITLE`#1 via this dialog box still save the value as TITLE`#1 inside the WDT file.

Perhaps TITLE`#1 etc. should be removed from the dialog box to avoid confusion.

The apostrophe should be placed before the attribute name:

Like this: `TITLE#1

Will AcadE list TITLE#1 once then?

Hi @rhesusminus , thank you for your reply.  The solution does not work.

If I use `TITLE#1, TITLE#1 and `TITLE#1 will appear in the Title Block Setup dialog.  It should be a bug in ACADE 2022 (or earlier as I could not try this function in older version).

Yup. It might just as well be a new "feature" in AcadE 2022. If it works in 2021 and previous...
