If you have questions related to this article let me know in the comments below.Part 13 of 13 in our How To Use AutoCAD seriesīecause AutoCAD projects are highly detailed and require accuracy, being organized with how you work is important. There we have it, a good introduction to Creating Title blocks with Fields. If you are using a Preset Title Block but finding one or two of them frustrating to remember then you can click on the fields and explode them with the EXPLODE command.There are dozens of free Title Block templates online that may suit your needs.Bear in mind commands such as REGENALL and UPDATEFIELD as well. If the fields aren’t updating, or you’re seeing four dashes, try the REA or REGEN command.Remember you can create MTEXT or DTEXT pretty much anywhere in your drawing and assign fields within that text.
Save a template with your name set up in Drawing Properties so you do not need to go in and type it in every time you start a new drawing. With every new drawing, the Drawing Properties starts blank.This way you don’t need to do that manually as it will automatically update if added using fields instead of simple text.īefore we close this tutorial a couple of tips:
