TitleBlocks are an important part of design documentation across all industries. Designing your TitleBlock layout to suit your look and feel along with all the necessary fields to display information is essential. Once you have designed the layout Vectorworks TitleBlock Borders make managing recorded data entry more efficient by having the ability to have recorded data linked to text blocks in the titleblock border layout, so that the titleblocks’ text always reflects the current data value. In this Coffee Break we will explore the features of the TitleBlock Border in Vectorworks and show how you can customise your own.

Dover Dam is a residential project located on an existing farm. The project is a 3D BIM model that includes stories, a site with modifiers, hardscapes, marionette objects, interior furnishings, and light fixtures in addition to traditional building objects organized by styles. The documentation makes use of viewport styles, smart markers, data tags, dimensions, callouts, 2D annotation tools, grid lines, elevation benchmarks, graphic legends, worksheets, titleblocks, class overrides, and data visualizations specifically to modify and enhance drawings.
The Urban Residence sample file can be used to explore various tools and features found in Vectorworks Landmark such as hardscapes, fences, walls, plants, graphic legends, viewport styles, titleblocks, worksheets, and more! Make use of the saved views and sheet layers to explore this file.

The High Tor project is a modern suburb townhouse development project. The main strip of residences was detailed using a data-driven BIM workflow and incorporating a typical Vectorworks file organization of Layers, Stories, and Sheet Layers for the drawing set. This project utilizes coordinated drawing techniques such as data visualization, smart markers, data tags, titleblocks, graphic legends, elevation benchmarks, and more. You will find developed interiors for all six units of this residential townhome complex. One PDF file of the entire drawing set is included.
MANAGING DRAWING SETS WITH THE TITLE BLOCK MANAGER
A titleblock is used to identify the project, the project team as well as providing information specific to a particular sheet within a set of drawings. Titleblocks also become the means for tracking the history of issued drawing sets together with
revisions within a set. These features not only convey information, but let you maintain a consistent appearance throughout a set of drawings.
This document will focus on using the titleblock to help you maintain a coordinated set of drawings as well as manage revision and issuance information and assumes the user is familiar with placing a titleblock on a sheet layer. Since this document
focuses on managing data, it is important that you use a titleblock border style on sheet layers.
