So with that said, I'm going to go up to insert, hit picture, I've already navigated to the location where I have my company's icon or imagery, then I go ahead and select that and say open. But for right now, all I want to do is insert a picture right here that describes my company. We're going to talk about that in the next video. You can go in and edit the various variables that are being tracked inside of all of these annotations. This is where we actually go to the layer where all the title block editing is done.

Whenever we do anything to our title block in our drawing, we typically want to right click and say edit sheet format.

Whatever you want to do, you've got a lot of options, but let's go ahead and update this title block. You can put it into an empty drawing view. In a later video, I use the insert picture to create a floor plan, actually, a layout, and you can go ahead and trace this just using sketch geometry after it's inserted. You can also use a picture to be inserted and then traced, if you want to trace and create other geometry, just like you would inside of Solid Works part file or Solid Works assembly. In this video, I'm going to focus on inserting a picture into my title block so that I can display my company information which is something you might want to do to jazz up your drawing template a little bit. Customizing our title block is a great way to set ourselves up for the future work we have to do and it also gives us a professional template that we can rely on when we're creating multiple drawings and sending stuff out to vendors.
