Hi,

Should it be possible to use partattribute´s in a titleblock(tabularnote).

I know I can use the partattribute´s from the part where the titleblock is placed,
but I´m a litte confused - I use the master model consept to a drafting part ,and my partattribute´s
is placed in the component´s .

But how can I use these partattribute´s , in my titleblock (tabularnote).?
(same consept as with a partslist)

hi again

Thank you - it work´s .
But should it be possible to set a variable in a field in the titleblock,so it is predefined.?
If I use the titleblock as a template in drafting, and then add a component with a specific variable.
(so the partattibute value will be present in the titleblock field ,without I have to select the component)

Yes and its pretty easy in two ways.

1. Create a pattern using those fields and retrieve the pattern in your drafting file.(its associative and you are free to change the reference any time pointing to any attibute and all drafts will update)

2. Create a master drafting part with references and import it in your draftings. This action will be one time only. Means if you change the master drafting part you must do an import again.

iklo,
create your master model drawing with the object relation told above.
Use replace component from the ANT and replace it with another master partfile using the same attribute with other values. That the way you should use/work the drawing template files in file new.

hi - thank you all,
it work´s for me.

Every new drafting part is filled out in the titleblock´s cell´s, with value´s from the component´s attribute.
Automatic .

But it´ important that "Use partiel Loading" is disable.Then update is 100% all the time.(Specially if existing component is replaced)
It´s also important not to delete the added component in the drafting template,I found out.
