- [Instructor] One great feature
in the SolidWorks drawings is the ability
to adjust the title block fields
and customize them.
You can also link all of the properties
in the title block to the custom properties
for your SolidWorks part or drawing.
So, to do this, you right click,
go to Edit Sheet Format.
I'm going to just zoom in down here.
Now, if I right click again,
you see Title Block Fields as an option.
I'm going to go ahead and click that button,
and now you see it's zoomed me in
on the Title Block Table.
So, right now we've got this black rectangle,
which is giving us the outline
of our title block table.
I'm going to stretch this out a little bit.
Now to add more text fields to your title block
you simply click on them.
And now, if you're using the default templates
this should all work pretty well.
As you select each one it'll show up on the list
on the left and tell you what attribute
it's linked to.
Alright, now that I'm done,
I'm going to hit the green check box,
I'm going to leave the edit sheet mode,
and now, if I hover over the title block area
you'll see that I have an orange dotted outline.
If I double click on that it'll give me
the ability to just fill in these fields
on the fly.
And then these text values will get pushed
through to the attributes of the custom
properties that they're connected to.
So, for example,
I can put my initials in here for Drawn By,
I can put in the date,
I can also put checked,
and all of these properties will flow through
and then push back into the custom properties
for this part.
If you need to make any changes,
you can always just go back
by editing sheet format, right click again,
title block fields, and you can deselect
any of the fields if you want to.
