Managing revision notes with titleblock/template

Quick question for those who use revision notes with your drawings (which should be most of you). My drawing template is made of attributes for just about everything I need changed on a sheet to sheet basis. I have gotten it to the point where it works very well for work flow and filling it out, everything is logical etc. But the problem I have is a series of projects I'm working on require lists of changes through out development and production. As it stands I have 4 rows for revision notes which are filled in one by one including the revision, date, by, ENC no etc. When I use up all four I have to recycle them up and add the latest one dropping the oldest revision note. Doing this with the block attribute manager is painful because it means manually moving each attribute's text one by one.

Wondered if anyone had any ideas on how to manage this better? I'd love an easy button but I can't see any easy to way to do this. It's nice if its not blocked out, its a simple move but they are attributes. :wink:

Any suggestions welcome, thanks!

that's why our revision boxes were changed from attributes to text.

on old projects still with attributes we "roll" them so a drawing may have

issue 5

issue 6

issue 3

issue 4

at the next revision issue 3 will become the blank

This carried over from the board days but it works fine today.

rev 4

rev 3

rev 2

rev 5

next issue

rev 4

rev 3

rev 6

rev 5

and so on, we have about 10 rev lines, but it works the same

Thank you for the responses. I decided to simplify it and just sep. that info from the title block and block it out sep. Make them all by default except for one with a "___" so I have something to double click to change values. That way I can copy and paste the block as it is overlayed over the title block as I need and shift as I need. Not contained everything as a whole by rather two wholes, but it still works better. Thanks again.

If you are using a block with attributes, why not make it a dynamic block using visibility parameters...

Rev 1-3

Rev 4-6

Rev 6-9

That way the information for each Rev is always available in the drawing but just not always visible
