How To: Update TitleBlocks with PowerShell

Brian Flaherty

Be sure to check out my Scripting4Crypto initiative. It’s a fun way to get into using cryptocurrencies all while getting your PowerShell needs met.

There have been many requests asking for the ability to update titleblocks within MicroStation using PowerShell. The good news is that this can be accomplished. It simply requires you run the Enable-PWTitleBlockUpdate cmdlet which was added to the PWPS_DAB module in version 1.7.6.0. 

Get-Help Enable-PWTitleBlockUpdate -Full

The Enable-PWTitleBlockUpdate cmdlet sets a few values within the registry to allow PowerShell to update the titleblocks.

Experiment with it and have fun.

Hopefully, you find this useful. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
