Did you try the system parameters - PTC_WM_REVISION,PTC_WM_ITERATION and PTC_WM_LIFECYCLE_STATE

Thanks

Hi Binesh,

The above mentioned system parameters are used to display the CAD Model Revision and State. I need CAD Drawing System Parameters.

Thanks,

PTC_WM_REVISION:D

PTC_WM_ITERATION:D

PTC_WM_LIFECYCLE_STATE:D

The ':D' pulls the values from the drawing file instead of the model file.

Do you really mean to display these in the Drawing Template or want the drawing template to pull these values into your drawing?

Revision ok, but have to be careful about state.  In general, the state ALWAYS is changed after the user checks in the drawing (that's the essential control point in the system).  So - Displaying the state as changed requires an Iteration.  Far, far better is to publish all and present the current state in a watermark in Creo View.
