Trying to create a Map Book with a template I have already created. However AutoCad will not recognize my template's title block. This is how I came across the error:
-Went to task pane.
-Clicked Map Book.
-Right Clicked on New >> Map book.
-Clicked Sheet Template.
-Clicked "..." to select my template.
-Used Drop down menu to selected Layout.
-Under Layout options.
-Checked "Include a title block."
-Used drop down menu to select the block I had made in the template.
-Set Scale Factor to 100.
-Set up Tiling Scheme and Naming Scheme how it normally works for me.
-Set "None" for Legend and Key.
-Set "Create New" for Sheet Set.
-Clicked Generate.
-Following Error message pops up: "Invalid Setting Found, Template layout does not have title block specified."
What did I do wrong?
Hi, i've had this problem some time ago. And i found that before you select a map book template, you need to identify the placeholders.
-First open your template
-Go to the MAP BOOK tab in the Task pane
-press the TOOLS button and then choose IDENTIFY TEMPLATE PLACEHOLDERS
-A little window will appear, there you must choose the title block line and select it in the layout.
-Then you save it as a template (maybe you will need to choose here the main viewport that will show the map)
Sorry for my english, i hope this helps
