And the "File Name" should point to the Central File, NOT the Local Copy

The plot stamp should be a text format string (think number formats in Excel or fields in Word) that allows us to piece together the text we want. I would suggest the following components:

Date and time, the usual DD/MM/YYYY H:mm type string so we can do things like D MMM YYYY to get text that is unambiguious when working internationally or YYMMDD a for compact code.

Filename, with central, local, drive, path and extension all as parameters, must be able to trim path to a fixed length with option to trim at start, end or middle of string and use ellipsis (e.g. middle trim would be C:\proj...\12345\model\)

PC Username and/or Autodesk user of person printing

Print sheet size (e.g. A1, A3)

Taking a wider view, dates should be formatted any way you want - as a parameter

of course we need to format date/time stamp as we want
maybe I want to show date with out time
there is a big need to add automatic data while printing

I hope Autodesk to pay attention to that

Especially needed since I just discovered that BIM360 doesn't append the user name to local files...
