Setting up the dimension text via the part family

3D Design
1

Hello everyone,

Would it be possible to configure the quote text in a part family?

For example:

  • Configuration A**: The dimension displays a specific custom text
    image

  • Configuration B**: The dimension displays different text
    image

Manually, the modification works fine, but I can't find the syntax to control this text directly from the Excel sheet of the part family.

thank you

Hello,
By linking your text to a property of your part/assembly (which is easy to retrieve/configure in excel), it should have been possible.

like: $PROPRIETE@YOUPI set up in your configs

and call the property via

  • $PRPSHEET, which comes from using properties in the model.
    or
  • $PRPVIEW, which comes from using properties in the model view indicated by the text

but it doesn't work in the side :smiling_face_with_tear:text.

A note will work well though
