Issue with Automatic Drawing Number and Page Function in Title Block

I’d like to seek help regarding this matter. The automatic drawing number and drawing page functions in the title block are not working correctly on my end, even after I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the rhino several times.

I also tried opening an existing file, and the same issue occurs, the drawing number and page number are not updating automatically.

May I ask if there’s another method or workaround that I might be missing? I’d appreciate any guidance you can provide.

Thank you !

Hi Kenly,

Hi Japhy, thank you for your prompt response. I opened the file you gave but still not working on my end .

Please run SystemInfo in your Rhino command line and post the results. Thanks!

This what I got:

Let try Repairing Rhino, which is more effective resolving issues than a reinstall.

Go to Add Remove Programs, right click on Rhino 8, modify > Repair.

unrelated but could use and update. Choose to do the custom install of the nvidia driver and check the ‘clean install’ option.
