I am an intermediate user of Stardraw A/V Lite.  I have just been asked to use Title Blocks for the first time.  Is there any documentation as to how to use title blocks?  I was able to download the title blocks and they are installed in My Libraries.  My problem is that I do not know how to drag them into my existing document and have the entire document show up viewable within the document.

It is very frustrating knowing that there is no "manual" and there is no technical support whom I can speak with.

To view the Stardraw AV Lite reference documentation and tutorials simply select Help | Help Topics.

To use a title block simply drag one from the Library List into your document and resize it to fit the document (do not scale the document to fit the title block).  When re-sizing,  check Options | Scale Symbols.  This will allow you to scale the title block which is itself a symbol.

Tip: hold down the Shift key when you drag a corner handle of the title block.  This maintains the proportions of the object you are scaling so that the title block will fit its intended paper size.

Have you considered attending one of our free webinars?  These occur every second Wednesday and are a great opportunity to learn about Stardraw AV / AV Lite and ask any questions you want.  You can register at www.stardraw.com/events

Thank you, Rob.  I will give this a try as well as look into the seminars.
