identification of parts in drawings

[TomášHlavinka]

Hello,

Can somebody help me with addying one thing to drawings?

If i have more than one sheet in the drawing which comes from an assembly and then other models are added, in fact all the drawing have the same name and description. I would just need to divide the description link in the *.frm file (next to the "SAV-TOOL-1000-003" as on pics below) and put a link to indicate a name of the particular member of the assembly.

I tried to put "&asm_mbr_name" but it did not work (probably due to the fact that the particular *.asm is not activated...)

in attached zip there are enclosed all cad docs...

thnx in advance

&asm_mbr_name is only valid in the context of a repeat region table. It won't work in the title block as you'd like.

However, with the part in question you can use the built in parameter &model_name. It will pull the name of the active part or assembly. If that is in the format in the titleblock it will work as well, as long as the model you want is active before adding the sheet where the views will be.

I agree with Doug. All my parts have parameters: description & pn (part number). Then these parameters can be used in title blocks, boms and other places as &description and &pn.
