Drawing revision block zone field auto-population (similar to what is available in SolidWorks)

Drawing revision block zone field auto-population (similar to what is available in SolidWorks)

Suggest adding functionality that auto-populates a ZONE field in the revision block of a Creo drawing, similar to what is available in SolidWorks.  This is illustrated at time 1:24 of the following Youtube video - 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g76cjgGIT28 

 

As illustrated in the video, when a drawing revision symbol is placed on the drawing, the ZONE field is automatically populated with the drawing zone where the symbol was placed.  This functionality is currently not available in Creo Parametric.

Go one step further and make an intelligent table that will populate all fields from a pseudo database in the drawing file.

 

What happens if you have multiple revision locations on your drawing? Does each one get a line in the table?

 

Not important to us as we don't put the zone of a revision symbol in the revision table since we usually have multiple symbols per revision.

Yesterday I got called from the customer and they have said that is this available in Creo and before Creo they had using the SW.

So this functionality minimize the effort require by the user at the time of revision note addition.

I request the @olivierlp  and @Mfridman  to acknowledge this idea and please see the attached link video for clarification. I hope it might be in our roadmap.
