ATREPORT_TITLEBLOCK |
Generate and place a title block on the active drawing |
Ribbon: FireCAD > Reports > Generate Title Block
Prerequisites
- A FireCAD project must be open
Overview
Places a table of project title information (project name, address and number, construction type, occupancy, contractor and engineer details) in model space. The values are fields linked to the project properties, so they update when the properties change. New project templates already include a title block on every sheet, so this command is mainly for older drawings.
Steps
- On the FireCAD Tools tab, open the Reports panel and choose Generate Title Block (or type
ATREPORT_TITLEBLOCK) - In Title Block Settings, tick the project and contractor properties to show; each shows the value it will print. Tick Display text in ALL CAPS if you want capitals
- Click OK, then pick the insertion point in model space
Tips
- The table is always placed in model space, even when you start the command on a sheet (layout). Run it from the Model tab and place it inside the sheet's frame
