Field Variables

Chad Wade

 I set up a title block with fields using dwgprops, fabulous feature I just found. Anyways does anybody know a system varuiable that will update a reference in the title block that relateds to the drawing saved name? For instance I used the ctab variable to update the page number with that of the paper space tab.

Also how about copyright? Or a list of what each variable is?

For the saved name there are 2 options
1. Fieldname > Document > Filename (without extension)
2. Fieldname > Variables > SystemVariable > DWGNAME (with extension)

A description of all system variables can be found on the SETTINGS dialog box. See the Bricscad Help under 'System Variables' to learn how to use the Settings dialog.

 Roy, thank you. that is actually the tutorial that I came across in order to start using fields. I wish that I learned this years ago.

I appreciate the input.
