Use of patterns
Use of patterns
(OP)
What is the purpose of pattern drawing formats?
Is there a way to edit all the title block information as you load the pattern onto the drawing? Here were I work, we edit the titleblock manually. So the use of patterns does not seem worthwhile to use.
I would like to learn how to use these properly.

RE: Use of patterns
UGS has added some capabilities to populate the drawing format from attributes in NX.

Everything should be designed as simple as possible, but not simpler.

Maybe we need to have our titleblock built differently so you can have attributes on to it.
Right now we just have the titleblock as lines with dash's so we can just double click on those and fill out the proper information. Old way, sure.

RE: Use of patterns
Again, these cannot be used in a pattern, which is non-editable as such, which is why we use them in seed files (one for each format size).
RE: Use of patterns
That is our standard format. All the -'s, we double click those to input the correct text.
How would we go about rebuilding the format to have attributes in there?

RE: Use of patterns
Question on this technique...how do you 'lock' the size and location of the table? I was going to go this route, but when experimenting the title block would move or change size from time to time, not staying on the corner of the format.

RE: Use of patterns
I'm interested to learn more about this technique.
