How can I customize a DRAWING TITLE?

I went to Edit GDL Library Parts, and "clicked" on Open Object, but I couldn't find where those library marts are stored.

Any idea if this is the right way to doi it and if it is. where are the Titles stored? Thank you.

Hi Andro,

The file I am trying to modify or duplicate and then modify is NSC Drawing Title 2 15

I went to Graphisoft/ ArchiCAD15/ ArchiCAD Library 15 but don't see any ACE Library. Can I use the file you've attached? How & Where can I insert it?

(See attached File stucture of ArchiCAD 15 Files...

Thank you,
F.S.

1. In the attacment I add "NCS Drawing Title 11"
2. ACE is not part of the ArchiCAD Library
3. Yes, you can use it. Select a Layout, then use "Load Another Drawing Title / Browse for the attached .gsm (put it in a folder with your personal objects), then select this new loaded title. Now with the Layout still selected you can press Ctrl+Shift+O to open this object and modify the GDL code.

Hi David, but this would be just to insert a Title by it self on a page or drawing right? (Correct me if I am wring Please).
What im looking for is to modify the Title so all the titles already in the Lay Out book get changed at once automatically.

No, this is just another way to open library parts for editing.

This object (Drawind Title) is named "Title with Layout No 11.gsm" in AC14 INT.
I extract "ArchiCAD Library 14.lcf" but there isn´t that object. But I found it in the ACE library "04 ACE-Library-V1"!
Modify it (have a good luck); Save as...; Select an exsisting Drawing title and change it with another using "Load Other Drawing title...".

I'm having a little trouble trying to edit this drawing title. Ideally I'd like to have the drawing line that bisects the drawing title and scale, to extend past the circle to the left by the same dimension as the circle diameter. The scale text reading as a suffix instead of prefix, and two options for the scale would be great too, ie 1:10 @ A1, and 1:20 @ A3. I've had a read on these and other forums but I can't find the right information to help me figure out these requests myself.
