Automatic Date

Anonymous

When setting up a master sheet, is there anyway of creating an autotext object that is linked to the date on the actual computer system. Currently I assign autotext that is linked back to the project info DATE, however I need to be mindful of changing this... Basically looking for more advanced automation if available.

You can set autotext to the system date, but keep in mind this will update every time the layout is opened. This can be useful for recording the print date of the sheet but the issue date is usually chosen for the set and not subject to automatic updating.

Thank you Matthew. That helps and I agree that the issue date should be distinct from the plot date.
