DesignSeries00025.pngAdding and Editing Drawing Revisions

Revisions can be added to a drawing file, and existing revisions can be edited, from the Title Block Border Settings: Revision Data Pane or from the Revision Data tab of the Title Block Manager (see Preparing to Publish with the Title Block Manager). Adding revisions from the Title Block Manager dialog box allows you to add sheets located in other files to the revision; this can help to coordinate large projects.

To add or edit a revision:

  1. If the revision applies to only a specific sheet, make that the active layer.

  2. Do one of the following:

    3. ●    Click on the title block border object, and then click Title Block Border Settings from the Object Info palette to open the Title Block Border Settings dialog box. Select the Revision Data pane from the list on the left.

    ●    Select File > Title Block Manager. For Title Block on Layer, click <Prev or Next> until the correct sheet layer displays. Click the Revision Data tab.

  3. To add a revision, click Add, or to edit an existing revision, select the revision from the list and click Edit.

    4. The Add New Revision or Edit Existing Revision dialog box opens. Enter the parameters.

    ►    Click to show/hide the parameters.

  4. If the Select Files dialog box opens, you can apply the revision to sheets in other files. Click Select Folder and browse to the folder with the files to select.

    5. The list browser displays the .vwx files located in the folder.

  5. Click the disclosure arrows if necessary to display or hide the individual sheets within a file. Click to place a check mark in the Use File column to the left of the files or sheets to add; entire files or specific sheets can be included in the revision.

    6. Selecting a file automatically selects all the sheets in the file.

  6. Click OK to return to the revision dialog box, and then click OK.

The revision is added to the list.
