trying to add job # field to titleblock,

copied another field and pasted into titleblock template

It does show up in the inserted titleblock, as [job number], which I can edit, from the drawing on unlock.

How do I get "Job Number" to appear in the pop up query box when inserting Titleblock?

Hi Linda,

The Title Block dialog ('pop-up' as you refer to it) cannot be altered, but it may not need to be.

Is 'job #' a drawing thing or a project thing? If all the drawings in your project have the same job # then it is a project thing and you could use one of the fields in the Project Details page of the Dashboard, e.g. 'Reference' which in the title block would be [Project\Reference] (see the Help topic "Substitution Fields" for a full breakdown of available fields and their references).

The Title Block dialog only contains information that is document-specific, but it sounds like job # might be a Project-level field so that would best be defined in the Project Details.

I hope I've interpreted things correctly.

Kind regards,
