Solidworks 2001
I've got a few questions regarding the "link properties" in drawing sheets.
Question 1.
I would like to know if there is a way to have solidworks ask you a series of link properties prior to starting a model? This will ensure the user to always remember to input any useful information that will be needed down the road.
Question 2.
Does anyone know how to place a space between the : in the solidworks drawing scale link property, so instead of viewing 1:2, I would like to see 1 : 2 for clarity.
Question 3.
The solidworks filename link property replaces the part number in the drawing sheet. I would like to know how I can tell Solidworks to replace only the part number if I saved my part as the 1234-500-01_Spacer Block. 1234 being the project code, 500 being the project section, 01 being the first part of that assembly and spacer block as an identifier, which provides me with a description without loading the part? I would only want 1234-500-01 to appear as the part number.
Question 4.
When I start a drawing, I provide a sheet format. I then detail a part and edit all of the link properties accordingly. Presently, adding a new sheet with a format forces me to re-edit all of the link properties that I edited in the previous sheet. I would like to know if there is a way that I can make a copy of the updated link properties without having to re-issue the same ones over again for the same part with multiple sheets?
Any response will be greatly appreciated!!
