Is it possible to have a drafting note that repeats the displayed output of a separate note? Ultimately, I want to reference the sheet zone of a particular note, using , but display the output in another note (in another location). For example, I have a note that has the input ' ' and it displays 'B1', based on its current position on the sheet. I would like to create a slave note, in a different location, that outputs the 'B1' text and will automatically update if the master note changes position to another zone. Thanks for any input!

Is it possible to have a drafting note that repeats the displayed output of a separate note? Ultimately, I want to reference the sheet zone of a particular note, using <W@$SH_SHEET_ZONE>, but display the output in another note (in another location). For example, I have a note that has the input '<W@$SH_SHEET_ZONE>' and it displays 'B1', based on its current position on the sheet. I would like to create a slave note, in a different location, that outputs the 'B1' text and will automatically update if the master note changes position to another zone.

Thanks for any input!
