WHAT AND HOW CAN YOU LINK INFORMATION TO NOTES
WHAT AND HOW CAN YOU LINK INFORMATION TO NOTES
(OP)
I am wondering what I can link to notes. I am interested in the following right now, but would like to know more.
how to insert a dimension in a note, like from another sheet.
how to insert the file name/location, current date and current sheet.
I am aware of file>properties and then attributes, but I have to type everything in. I am sure UG should know the file name, date, page number or name of sheet or other information without me telling it. Any info would be helpful.

thread561-228567: Automatic Attribute annotations - title block values
These turned up when I did a search on 'automatic text', there might be more that are of use to you. Try varying the search terms a bit to refine your results.

Do you have WAVE?
What version of NX are you on?
I am on NX6 and in when I open up "note" there is a relationship icon - it is a bit hard to find at first, it is the right icon, of four icon, in the "symbol" menu.
You may want to play with that a bit.
also do a search for "part attributes" using the search feature located just above here, and under the name of this thread

_____________________________
In de expression editor (in modeling -> Ctrl-E) create the following expressions (all type string):
MyDate = StringUpper(dateTimeString("localTime?", True))
MyDay = subString(MyDate, 9, 10)
MyMonth = subString(MyDate, 5, 7)
MyYear = subString(MyDate, 21, 25)
MyTimeStamp = MyDay + " " + MyMonth + " " + MyYear
Then in Drafting pasted this text into a note: <X0@MyTimeStamp>

It seems like that is the current date as of now. Is it possible to get the date that the file was either created or last saved?
