OrCAD newbie question

[Steve Watt]

Greetings!

I recently inherited some schematics and version 10.5 of OrCAD
Capture. I need to change what's showing in the title blocks. Is
there a way to set the display properties of all 68 title blocks (68
pages) at once? So far, it seems that I can only do it one-at-a-time,
which is reallllly painful.

Thanks!

Free time? There's no such thing. It just comes in varying prices...

 

Here's one way:

Save the title block to a local library.

Edit the title block to have the data you want in it. I'm guessing
that you're changing company name/address or some such.

Then do a "replace cache" with "overwrite properties" on the title
blocks showing in the design cache.

And spend a bit of time cleaning them up afterwards.

Do a back-up 1st, eh?
