File Name parameter label

File Name parameter label

Add a File Name propertie/parameter, so you can add this as a label in your title block.

 

(now you only have a File Path-propertie)

And if it's a Workshared project, the ability to get the Central file name/path, not just the Local

In addition to this

to set the parameters of the sheet size as a label in the titleblock

Basically any information pertaining to the project as a document. AutoDesk seems to have forgotten that more information is involved in BIM than simply information about the building. The client/contractor wants information about who drew the model, who is building it, etc. I think that project recipients, material/construction specs and contract items should be parameters too, that way the entire project can be documented in one place...

@dplumb_BWBR This. The location of the local file is completely redundant in a title block, we need the actual path to the central file, that's where everything originates from so I've no idea why this isn't an accessible parameter in a label.

If i like to add the filename on my sheets i have the possibility to make this manuel by a costum parameter or by using the existing paramter "filepath".

 

To prevent errors the existing parameter is a great thing. but if the file is stored in a deep filestructure the filepath explode and overflows my sheet.

 

So I suggest to implement a systemparameter which shows only the filename and not the whole path.
