title Block setup

[Anonymous]

having issues setting up an Isometric tite block. and considering making the switch from Cadworx to P3d but so far not overly impressed.

creating isometric drawings seems to take about 4x longer than cadworx and i still cannot get an isometric to spit out in the format i would like. (despite spending the last week back and forth with a-cad technical support.)

problems are as follows:

loosing all my BOM data from the 3d model

errors are shown when creating the isometric (but does not state what the errors are)

copying an existing title block from cadworx to p3d does not work at all.  (re drew it from scratch got it to where i wanted it to be and loose all my properties)

screenshots attached.

I just have one question to make sure you understand that, all information on the title block has to be done in the .dwt file inside the TitleBlock "block". All other information will be discarded if not inside the block.

I'm confused what you're referring to.

The bom are is within the tire block yes if that's what you mean

In your Iso template does your dwt file have the following fields colored, Blue=BOM, Green=Drawing Area. See Image

I did notice that in the first image you send the lines were dashed. That indicates existing piping and will not be on the BOM.

Where on the model does it show it as existing and how does one change that?

If I use a out of the box style it comes out fine so it confuses me why in
my template it comes out that way

When you select the line, it will say in the properties dialog box whether it is new or existing. It does take some time to learn the ends and outs of creating title blocks, I am still learning it.

Dear @Anonymous ,

Attention!

CADworx works with Isogen for isometry creation.
AutoCAD Plant 3D works with the developed tool Isometric.
The configuration of AutoCAD Plant 3D is not comparable to Cadworx.
The templates from Cadworx will not work with AutoCAD Plant 3D.

Here you will find all the information you need to configure an Iso title block for AutoCAD Plant 3D
