Drag view on layout

Hello

When I drag a view on a new sheet, the name of that view is always some random location and the text is always window sill. I am sure i did change it once but not sure how that got saved. Is there a way to reset all that?

I am not sure if there is a way to reset but my workaround is to use the 'pick perimeter' tool (Alt+click) and that would become your default Drawing settings. 

Just be sure that your Drawing Settings are set-up the way you want it. I think your setting should be like the one shown in the screen-cap below.

The quick way to reset the ID & Name values to default is to go into the Drawing Manager, select the Views you want to change and the click on Settings at the bottom of the dialog window.

Open the settings for the Drawing Tool and check the Title and relevant settings.
