Project Info - v16

Gerry Leonor
Advisor
started v16 a couple of weeks ago. I was surprised & disappointed to find out that the Sorting option for the Project Info window had disappeared. We don't use any add-ons (Cadimage or similar) to update drawing revisions, but have to rely on the Project Info auto-text capabilities to update drawing revisions in two places -- the cover page & the affected drawing.

seeeing as v16 has 3 main fields in Project Info: "Project & Site Details", "Architect Details", & "Client Details" is there a way to add other main fields to use the autotext capabilities of Project Info?

also, what are the chances that the Sorting option (either Number, Name, or Description) will be brought back in v16? i guess i shouldn't be holding my breath?

If I insert "Site Full Address" autotext... I get the unwanted commas.

As David posted..... The workaround (?) is to add the autotext by: "site address", "site city", "site state" "site postcode".

I'm with Jay... It'd be better if they eliminated the commas from the "Site Full Address".

Off-topic: What a beautiful font type on that picture, David!
Optima. I have been using it as my company "signature" font.

Those should not be there, as you end up with a comma after the last address item which is non-sensical.

Unfortunate case of satisfying a dubious graphic interface desire at the expense of flexibility for users.

I'm migrating old templates with lots customized Project Info values across several masters to the new more limited option. Not really happy...
