DESIGN TABLES IN DRAWINGS
DESIGN TABLES IN DRAWINGS
(OP)
Is there a way to have the design table in a drawing have an anchor point. I made a design table to track our revisions and want to be able to snap to a anchor point on the drawing. I looked everywhere I could think of and found nothing about doing this. Does anyone have a workaround?

RE: DESIGN TABLES IN DRAWINGS
Question#1: If I create a custom property called "rev1" and I assign that to the column in the rev table do I have to leave the colum description as "rev1" or can I change the description and still maintain the link to the column.
Question#2: If the custom property I defined is a configuration specific property will it look at all configurations of the part and populate the rev table accordingly?
I want to be able to have an automatically updateable rev table so that it makes less room for error. How does everyone else track revision changes in solidworks? I thought I would have a part file that has multiple configurations that designates each revision level. Not only would this make updating assemblies with the new revision easier but it would make updating drawings just as easy. The only way I have found to do this effortlessly is by creating a design table. But now the table looks out of place in the drawing. Does anyone have any tips on how to make design tables blend into the drawing without too much effort?
Any help that anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jon
