Custom Title Block Drawing Area

I added an additional page to my custom Title Block document by adding a plan drawing and Copy/Paste content from an existing page. I made changes to the new page by moving things around and resizing the existing boxes and fields.

The problem is that when I select this page as the title block it adds the title block along side the drawing and does not scale and surround the drawing as the other pages do. I imagine that there must be a setting for the drawing area box that I have missed.

Thanks

Hi Scott,

Yes, open the Layers dialog (Ctrl+L) and make the layer called "Title Block Drawing Area" visible.

This layer should contain one rectangle, and one rectangle only, which is used to set the extents of the area to scale around the drawing that the Title Block will surround.  Resize and position the rectangle according to your requirements.

You may find it useful to look at the contents of that layer in one of the pre-existing templates.

I hope this is helpful.
