Click Page Setup
Click the Title Block Properties button
This will launch the Title Block Manager. From here you can add new title blocks, edit, delete, and rearrange existing title blocks.
You can also Import and Export Title Blocks from this menu.

From the Title Block Manager,
Click Add or Edit icons to launch the Title Block Properties menu.
This menu allows you to name the title block (NOTE it is always a good idea to use size and orientation as part of the title block name making it easier to select the proper title block later). For example, 8.5x11 Landscape with Logo.
This is also where the size, angle, and outline styles are defined.
Click the Open Title Block Editor button from the Title Block Properties screen.
This will launch the Title Block Editor with the currently defined size from the Title Block Properties Screen.
NOTE: Your title blocks can be horizontal, vertical, or even full screen as shown here. Just remember to allow for your page margin when calculating the size.
For example, if you are creating a title block for 8 1/2 x 11 paper and you want a full page title block with 1/4" boarder all the way around, the size would be 8 x 10 1/2 as shown here.
Remember, the page boarder is set on the Page Settings Tab.
All cad functions and settings are present for use with the title block editor as well as the symbols and variables library.
Also included is the ability to "section" the title block using the same section editing principles from the Product Editor.
