How to successfully place a custom TitleBlock in the TCL instructions for creating an OPJ

Hi, Sir:

In the OrCAD Capture CIS 23.1,

In the DSN page of the manually created project, I can successfully place my custom TitleBlock using the same TCL commands.

However, it does not work in the OPJ I currently create using the following TCL commands,

and there are no error messages. After the entire circuit diagram is drawn, the lower right corner is still blank.

Thank you for your careful and patient guidance.

    Hi FK202606088435 ,


    Since the same TCL commands works in a manually created DSN, the issue is likely related to when and where the title block is being applied in the script.
    Could you confirm whether your script places the title block after the DSN is fully open and the page is created and set as active?
    Sharing your TCL snippet will help narrow this down.

    For further details, you can refer to below article on ASK portal:

    Hi TechnoBobby,

    I've tried several times, but I still can't paste my TCL command here. I also can't share it with you via Google Drive sharing link. Is there any other way to share my TCL command?

    Thank you for your assistance in replying.

    Hi FK202606088435 ,

    Could you please confirm how you are trying to share the TCL, are you attempting to upload the *.tcl file directly to the forum, or are you trying to copy‑paste the commands into the reply thread? you can try pasting the script in smaller parts or share only the relevant portion causing the issue.
