Expression Builder Within Title Block Designer

For a very long time we have been looking for a way to dynamically concatenate project and page variables within title blocks for more flexible way of displaying our client drawing numbers.

Currently, users must manually string together variables, leading to formatting issues due to fixed-width character limitations that cause spacing and overlapping problems. There is no built-in method to left-justify or dynamically adjust concatenated variables.

We propose implementing an Expression Builder feature within the Title Block Wizard, allowing users to combine multiple project and page variables dynamically, create custom strings with automatic formatting adjustments, and left-justify concatenated values for a professional and consistent appearance.

This enhancement would increase efficiency in creating and managing drawing references, improve readability and professional appearance of title blocks, provide greater flexibility in accommodating various project naming conventions, and reduce manual work and potential for errors.

The enhancement would address long-standing user requests, as mentioned in the forum.
