Edit Drawing Title Name

Read if you want a challenge.  I've spent enough time researching it and it is driving me crazy.

Does anyone know how to change the drawing name for a linked callout after it is placed?  I’m experimenting with the linked callouts and in particular the Drawing Title for the floor plan view.  In my BIM model (design model), I used the task Create Views > Floor Plan View command.  I activated the Create Dynamic View option.  After clicking in the view, I got the Create Dynamic View dialog box.

I understand that the name field here is critical.  At first, I set the name to FLOOR PLAN.  After clicking OK, the drawing view and sheet view are created.  Here comes the challenge.  The Sheet Name and Drawing Name both inherit the name "FLOOR PLAN".  I figured out how to change the sheet name by editing the model properties of the sheet model > Sheet Properties > Sheet Name item (A-401).  I cannot figure out how to change the drawing name from FLOOR PLAN to something like RESTROOM PLAN.

Good luck.

  • You can't change it

    This utility has been broke for quite some time

    Select cancel as you have already created the saved view

    Then manually create a blank drawing file with the name you want

    And then attach the saved view coincidentally

    This has been logged but keeps getting closed

  • I thought that might have been the case.  I guess I won't get those 6 hours of my life back.  At least I learned more about the project explorer and links.  Thanks for the reply.
