Title: automatic project name in title block of virtuoso schematic sheets Post by ywguo on Dec 31st, 2013, 12:12am Hi Guys, I want to display the project name automatically if my customized sheets are instantiated in the schematic composer. What can I do? Sure I have defined title pairs in the user property schSheetTitles, ("project" "string"). But there is not any default value. Furthermore, I will work one several projects of course. I want to display correct project names automatically. Any comments are appreciated. BG, Yawei |

You can make the labels have a default value. Instead of the label being [@company] say, it could be [@company:%:Designer's Guide] - so it would show "Designer's Guide" until you'd gone to Edit->Sheet Titles and changed it to the value you want. That doesn't really help you for a project though, since you're unlikely to want a single default value. A couple of possibilities:
