Fields in MEXT strings.
Fields in title blocks. The SHEET TITLE is a field. Use Fields for all title block information. You should re-design
all of your title blocks using fields! Notice the custom fields created for this title block. (Drawing By, Drawing title,
Drawing Number, etc.)
Another simple use for fields that we can teach is the creation of a simple plot stamp. Use standard fields and a
custom field for a plot stamp in the lower left corner of your sheet. The plot stamp WILL preview when you plot.
Fields for area calculations
One simple trick I use for introducing fields is linking a field to an area of an object in model space. I then use
another trick to copy and paste the field code to paper space.
