Proe 2001 Inheritance Ref Dim In Notes

Proe 2001 Inheritance Ref Dim In Notes

Proe 2001 Inheritance Ref Dim In Notes

(OP)
In using ProE 2001

I have an inheritance feature in my part.

In the drawing I'm trying to create a note that refers to a dimension.

The dimension is d14:IID_590

Now I'm adding the following to the note:
&d14:IID_590

But it doesn't consume the dimension or show the dimension value.

Any ideas?

I've also tried &d14:FID_6 (the inherited feature is feature 6) and &d14:FID_6:IID_590

But nothing.

The dimension from the inheritance feature is not stored in your part. You might try to create a reference dimension in your part and refer to that in your note.

That's what I've ended up doing.

Thank's for the feedback.
