Editing a Title Block Border

There are two ways to edit title block borders: editing an existing border’s parameters in the Object Info palette, and editing the title block layout using object editing mode. Object editing mode for title block borders has extended capabilities that permit text objects to be linked to title block border data records so they update automatically as record data is changed; see Editing a Title Block Layout.

To create a custom title block, you may opt to begin with an existing style that closely resembles the title block needed, convert the object to unstyled, and then edit the parameters and layout.

Title Block Border Properties

To edit title block border parameters in the Title Block Border Settings dialog box, click Title Block Border Settings from the Object Info palette. Alternatively, either right-click the object and select Edit from the context menu or double-click the object; when the Edit Title Block Border dialog box opens, click Settings.

Some of the main parameters of title block border objects can also be edited from the Object Info palette.

For title block borders using object styles, the parameters that are set by style display for informational purposes but cannot be edited from the Title Block Border Settings dialog box or the Object Info palette.

The title block border parameters are described in Adding a Title Block Border. Only the parameters that are different are described here.
