Topic: Project specific data to all folios (also for existing folios)?

Hello all,

I am trying to set a general data (who draw, who checked, where the installation is performed etc.). When I put them in the Project properties->General, they are not imported neither to the new folio nor to the existing ones. I have created my own template where I wrote my own %variables.

It only works when I set the general text in the properties of folio (or when I set in the Project properties-> New folio and this text ist then written in every new folio).

Am I doing something wrong or the function of QElectroTech is not like I am describing? Is there a possibility how to insert some general data to the title block even I have done the project and wants to avoid update of each folio?

Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Have a nice day.
Marek

Hello,
Going to Settings -> Configure Qelectrotech -> New Project -> Custom.
There, in the cell on the left, put the personalized value you created in the model and beside whatever appears in the project.
create a new project and it updates ... it is not possible to update old projects in this way. it will have to be manually.

Re: Project specific data to all folios (also for existing folios)?

You have search and replace util for changing in an entire project some items, like items on tittle block.
Ctrl + F to launch this util.

Take note of the fact that folio variables overwrites project variables.
Sometimes you have to remove the folio variable to make use of the (global) project variable.
