I'm trying to create a drafting template that will automatically put the OS Filename of my part or the Leaf Name located in File -> Properties -> Displayed Part, somewhere in the drawing.

What is the syntax or variable that will do this?

I have several attributes allready defined in a template part that automatically popup in the drawing but, I cannot get the actual "Filename.prt" to do this.

Thanks for any help.

Do you have GRIP?

&pname is the partname.

set an attribute to the partname and then put that in your format.

"Fixed in the next release" should replace "Product First" as the PTC slogan.
