Drafting Size Re-use

Drafting Size Re-use

Drafting Size Re-use

(OP)
Hi

I am working on NX6 and was wondering if it were possible to reuse the sizes that are displayed when appying a size with tolerance to an object in the same way you can use the database attributes. IE when inputting text you can use the <w@db_part_name> to display this information and it will update on a part name update, is this possible with drafting objects? now i know that they have object ID's and can be renamed, but what i want to be able to do is have notes that are associative to actual sizes and if they update so will the notes. (rather than typing out <T0,10!0,20> for example)   

RE: Drafting Size Re-use

a couple questions:
are you using the master model method for your drawing?
are you using WAVE?
