      Hi, Matt666:
      This looks to be very handy.
      By way of clarification, does the value in the "X on screen" represent a proportion of the viewing area, or what? If you increase the value, does it enlarge the text?
      And, I assume the @ sign is just a variable for the example, otherwise it would say FIELD1?

      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

        Hi mitcorb, and thank you for your answer.
        X or Y on screen determinates position of the cartouche in the drawing. Cartouche will move if you change the values. It doesn't change font size.
        @ sign means 'value is in the title'. In example above, @ sign is written in value of field 1, and "affaire" (site in english) is written in name of field 1. So plugin will put "Affaire : "+ title field 1 (Affaire : TEST1) on the first line.
        Field 1 is the first field in the title. Not in Cartouche. But I can modify script if you want. Field 1 can be the first field in the cartouche. Why not?

          Hi, Matt:
          I am not asking you to change anything. I am not so well trained in use of databases, and I am simply trying to understand the usage, or "grammar".

              So, then, whatever one has named the file is then placed in the database, but you must use # as part of the title, and in the order of the fields. The @ sign tells the cartouche generator to look at the title for the appropriate value?

                Absolutely.
                '#' sign is just the separator of all informations in the drawing title. If you want to use another sign, change title AND whange separator in the cartouche settings.
                @ = just look at the title. Just one thing: You can't put ONLY 3rd title information in the cartouche. First and second title information must be in the cartouche. I will try to improve this plugin soon.

                Just a little improvment : If you put '@@' sign in the value field, information will be capitalized. Otherwise, it keeps title case.

                            New version soon available (tomorrow). 2 new variables : %DIR (to add directory of the drawing in cartouche) and %PAGE (an interesting variable that add name of the current scene in the cartouche. And every change of page will also modify cartouche).
                            A help file is here now. I modified call system of case change (no @@, but < or >). And now you can change order of title information.

                              Matt, would it be possible to tie this into the Scene Tabs to change page numbers and label each view according to the named scene tabs? (i.e. Front Elevation, Rear Perspective, etc.)
