Hello @kbhavsar-3

 

 don´t know if it´s possible, but can provide you alternative solution.

It´s based on drawing format rearange. ADD DESIRED PARAMETER OUT OF DRAWING SHEET. Than you can edit parameter from drawing space (don´t have to open part - parameters).

See following picture:

At the end you can edit desired parameter directly in drawing space and it will not be pritnted on drawing.

Hello @mbonka,

Thanks for the suggestion. but i donw want to change the parameter. i want to open a drw file to update dimensions, etc. so if i can add anything in one more column which will open my drawing of that part.

If i will have 50 parts of assembly. i will have to open each part drawing file by typing its name. in place of that, i need something which is there in bom table of  assembly drw file. which will open up my drawing file of any part.
