You can save it as a favorite,
Or is this a detail you have scripted?

Select your elements
File>Libraries & Objects>Save as title type

... and you probably won't be happy with the results.

Try amending an existing title type.

I tried this earlier and when i click on Save Title type
it doesnt do anything
you would expect it to come up with a dialogue box asking where you want to save it.... but, nothing..

(is that what you meant with not being happy with the results)

No that was not what I meant.
Sounds like you might need to reinstall archicad if you are not getting dialogue box asking where to save it.

Unless you forgot to select your title block elements first?
