I need to create a revision history block for my schematic drawings

Question

I have tried to use the Title Block Editor to make a revision history list block, but I can't get away from the structure of the title block with its forced field types, etc.
Is there a way to create a revision history block? Thanks much, Tod

Hi Tod,
Right-click your title block and select Edit Symbol/Title Block to open the Title Block Editor. Here is a screenshot for reference:
Let's start by drawing the borders. The blue circle indicates the Resize Boundary Box. Click here to change the size of the area where you want to draw the title block.
Now place the headers (green circle): click the Place Text icon on the toolbar and type REV1, etc.
Finally place the custom fields (red circle), this is the info that you can edit when you double-click the Title Block. To enter these fields select Fields>>Custom Field 1, 2, etc.
Close the Title Block Editor, double-click the Title Block and enter the information to your custom fields.
I also attached the title block that I created.
I hope this helps.
