Hi, i need to know how to edit layout texts, Ex: project name ,file name ,.....

[@ChiefArchitect]

The title block and text you'd like on all pages can be controlled on page 0 of your layout. Here's another video that walks you through the details: www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/48/creating-layouts-and-construction-documents.html

Watched all 5 videos. Good overall demo regarding doing a remodel. Some stuff I didn't need to know like inserting and changing windows, doors and stairs when those are explained on other videos. Some things were left unanswered that I would have liked to have been clarified, shown and explained in regards to working with as-builts (AB). Examples are how you showed your AB walls with no fill, how you delete the AS-BUILT framing, how you would show the roof framing in regards to the AB, and the hatching to differentiate existing AB from proposed. My first project with CA is a remodel and its kinda tricky I would like to see a more in-depth webinar about remodeling, like 2 hour and a half classes. This helped but I'm still in the dark with a few things.
