Drawing Title with Optional North Arrow for US market

way back when this was available for the Australian market, but I believe it has since disappeared. There is nothing like this for the US market and it would be much appreciated!

If we already have the ability to toggle on a graphic scale in drawing titles, why not also an option to toggle on a north arrow which rotates with the project north - it would be a huge time saver.

At present we need to place a separate north arrow on the end of the titles for plan views which share the sheet with other drawings. Placing a north arrow on the master layout is not ideal when types of placed views vary.

Is placing the North object in the view not an option?

I would say it is better in the plan rather than the title.

If you rotate the view in the layout, would the title take that into consideration?

Having North symbol in the plan it will always be correct.

it works for plan views which are the same scale - but we don't want to have to place multiple North arrows all over the place to accommodate enlarged and cropped views which would then have to be managed by layers - if this title existed regionally before I don't see why it can't be reinstated?
