Sheet Size Group - modelint/flatland-model-diagram-editor GitHub Wiki

It is not really necessary to customize a title block for each sheet size. A title block sized to fit in a Tabloid (11inx17in) Sheet is equally adequate to an A3 Sheet. So it is convenient to group these two sizes for the purpose of determining which Scaled Title Block to use. It might be possible to work out a scaling formula that would perfectly size a Title Block Pattern to given Sheet dimensions, but this formula is not obvious. It certainly is not a linear scale. (If you take the Title Block Pattern to Sheet size ration for Letter, and scale that up for an A1 Sheet, it doesn’t look right). Rather than try to devise a formula, we can just scale each Title Block Pattern to fit a given Sheet Size Group which will be less work than doing the same for every Sheet size, US and International.
