Title a Drawing

Typically the first action taken when producing a drawing is to add a title and other general drawing information. This is carried out by completing the drawing Properties dialog, refer to Properties Dialogs, which can be initialised by pressing the right mouse button over the drawing sheet, with no objects selected, and selecting the Properties option on the menu.

On completion of the Properties dialog, a title block is added to the drawing, which can be completed as required with the drawing number, sheet number, revision, clients drawing number and five lines of a drawing title.

An advanced button exists on this Properties dialog which also adds additional sheet level data for example: Last line number used. Completion of this data is optional.

It is good practice to state the AVEVA P&ID release number, somewhere on the drawing in normal text (that is, in AutoCAD text).
