A text file defines which AutoCAD Electrical toolset values are mapped to the drawing title block attributes. Use the Title Block Setup utility or any text editor to create or modify the WDT mapping file. When using the Title Block Setup utility, open a drawing with the title block inserted as a block.
File Format
The mapping file is created and updated by the Title Block Setup utility. It can be edited directly using a text editor such as Notepad or WordPad. It is important to maintain the following format.
The first line defines the title block names. For example,
BLOCK = TITLE
If your title block/revision block consists of multiple blocks, you can encode two or more block names into the WDT file. For example, the following line tells AutoCAD Electrical toolset to look for and update blocks called TB, TB-REV, and TB-ISSUE. Each block name is separate by a comma.
BLOCK = TB,TB-REV,TB-ISSUE
You can also use wildcards to define title blocks. For example, the drawing could have any of three different title block sizes, named TITLE-SIZEB, TITLE-SIZEC, or TITLE-SIZED. The following line tells AutoCAD Electrical toolset to find and update the title block no matter what size is used on the drawing.
BLOCK = TITLE-SIZE*
The lines that follow the block definition, map the attribute names on that block to specific AutoCAD Electrical toolset values. For example,
PROJ_TITLE = LINE1
DRAW_TITLE1 = LINE2
DRAW_TITLE2 = DWGDESC
PROJ_NUM = LINE4
SX = SHEETMAX
SH = SHEET
PLOTTIME = PLOTTIME
PLOTDATE = PLOTDATE
Place a backwards apostrophe character in front of the attribute name if the attribute tag name of the title block contains one or more wildcard characters (# @ . * ? ~ [ ] - ). For example, '[REV] = LINE5, where the title block attribute name is [REV].
