Force All Caps In Title Block
Force All Caps In Title Block
(OP)
I'm trying to set our company drawing template to pull model iProperties data into the drawing title block. However, Inventor materials are named in mixed case. Does anyone know how I can force these material names to show up as all caps in the title block, without creating all new materials? Thanks!

Maybe you can rename/capitalize the materials in the materials xml file with inventor closed though..try it (make a copy first obviously just incase)

You are to be commended. Our Engineers would never fill in the title block information in upper case. For example when we started a new CAD software we had to put the finish in the title block. We had a standardized written list of finishes for all material. We would get Blk anodize, or Black Anodize or BLACK ANODIZE or Anodize Blk or the whole thing just like it should be.
