Plot Copy Perpendicular Title Item

This function allows you to create a new item in a title block by selecting any existing item and dragging it to a new location, in a direction perpendicular to the existing orientation of the item, to place the copied item in the required position.

Prerequisites: A title block is displayed in the Plot Sheet Setup window.

To run this function: In the Plot Sheet Setup window, choose Title Blocks > Edit > Copy item perpendicular, or...

  • In the Function Chooser, type PLOT COPY PERPENDICULAR TITLE ITEM, and press ENTER.

The perpendicular direction is really only relevant for lines. Any other title block items will behave as if the normal copy function was used.

The following message is displayed.

Using the mouse, select the title item to copy, and then drag it, releasing the mouse button to place the copied item in its new location.

Result

The copied item is placed in the required location. If you wish to further modify the item, use the Plot Title Item Properties function.
