FiGuRE 14.22 The sheet template with the title block referenced into it
the sheet information block, you'll also learn to set this attribute by changing the
drawing file properties.
1. Continue using 14A-BDTPLT.dwt , or open it if it's not already.
2. Create a layer named A-A N NO -T TLB-TEXT with a color of 5 , and set
it current.
3. Choose the Insert button within the Block panel on the Insert tab to
open the Insert dialog box.
4. Select the Browse button in the Insert dialog box, and browse to the
TTLB-INFO.dwg you created earlier in this chapter.
5. Since the TTBL-INFO block, like the title block reference, was created
with a common insertion point, you use the default Insertion Point of
0,0,0, Scale of 1, and Rotation of 0. Make sure your Insert dialog box
looks like Figure 14.23, and click OK.
6. Since the TTLB-INFO block contains block attributes, the Edit Attributes
dialog box opens upon inserting it into your drawing. You'll use Sheet Set
Manager to populate these attributes, so you can accept their default val-
ues by clicking OK.
With the exception of the DRAWN_BY attribute, the default value for
each of the block attributes contained within the TTLB-INFO block hook
into Sheet Set Manager. Instead of hooking into Sheet Set Manager, the
DRAWN_BY attribute pulls its value from the drawings properties.
