Smart properties retrieve a dimension in a drawing

Hello

I would like to recover dimensions present on plans in order to integrate them into a table.

Unfortunately I can't get the values with the "dimension" tool of the smartproperties, it works perfectly in the 3D but in the drawings it retrieves the name of the dimension.

For example: "Female plan3@Charniere RD1@Vue for R2016 - 5 and 6-3@Vue Drawing 3".

Do you have a tip?

Thank you in advance.

 

Hello

Can the family of parts do the trick?

The table can be displayed in a map, for example:

Hello

If they are construction dimensions of the room, it would be easier to recover them in the room rather than in the drawing.

Thank you for your answers,

 

I forgot to specify that these were not construction dimensions but dimensions from an assembly,

Essentially, distances and angles between different elements.

 

so, maybe by creating the dimension in the assembly and not in a MEP.

yes I think like @ stefbeno

that it's the best walkthrough

The families of parts also work for the dimensions of an assembly!

 Hello everyone,

I had abandoned the subject a little for lack of time, moreover we recently had the visit of an Axemble trainer to whom I explained my problem,

After a few tries he advised me to make a request for improvement because, indeed, it seems that you can't recover a dimension placed on a drawing.


 

Hello

I don't know if this is what you are looking for but you can try this method.

 

may the force be with you.

Thank you for your help OBI WAN, your technique works.

I created a Table where I fixed the size of the cells and I superimposed it on the area of the cartouche where I wanted to make the values appear.
