Family Table of Charted Dimensioin in an Assembly Drawing

I recently asked some questions about charted dimensions on a family table for a part drawing.

http://communities.ptc.com/message/254543#254543

Now I am trying to do something similar with an assembly, but I would like to have instance, P/N (parameter), WIP P/N (parameter), RAW P/N (parameter in the one part that is in the assemly that is machined), DIM "A" & DIM "B" (driven dimensions) and DIM "C" (driven dimension / parameter).

I was trying to start by just modifying the table I had from the previous model and change the filter for the Length to the "C", but the table will not propagate with these three - instance/pn/"C".

Thanks,

Dale

I ended up using a charted drawing with individual repeat regions and filters for each repeat region similar to this thread:

Now I am getting an error message that "some drawing tables were frozen; these are not updated."

I started a new table similar to the one I created for the individual part. I have the instance, pn, wip pn, and dim "C" working.

I am trying to get the RAW PN (part number from the only part in the assembly. It is an assembly because other work is being done to the raw part), QTY, DIM "A" & "B" driven dimension that are not parameters to work.

When I created a filter with "B" (driven measured dimension) similar to "C" (a parameter) the column just shows up blank.

Dim "A" is the overall length that, if I could, I could pull from the a parameter from the raw part.

Any thoughts.

Thanks, Dale

I was trying to use the parameter name from the componenet (length). Tom Uminn Do you know if this is possible?

Thanks, Dale
