NX 8 title block

NX 8 title block

NX 8 title block

(OP)
Hi,
I'm creating a NX 8 drafting template with title block.
This are my steps :
  1. Create a 'dump' file.
  2. Collect a series of properties like description, material and wight.
  3. In NX, select 'File-->New'.
  4. On the 'Model' tab, select the "Blank" template.
  5. Create and open a new part file using this template.
  6. Switch to the Drafting application.
  7. When prompted for Sheet Size, toggle to 'Standard Size' and select the 'Size' paper needed for this template.
  8. OK the Sheet dialog.
  9. Select 'Tools-->Drawing Format-->Borders and Zones'.
  10. Set the desired options to create the borders and zones on the sheet.
  11. OK the Borders and Zones dialog.
  12. Select 'Insert-->Table-->Tabular Note'.
  13. Place a table on the drawing.
  14. Add the 'dump' file as component.
Now I ask to you which are the steps to import 'dump' file properties into the tabular note cell.
I tried to select the cell and use the import attribute, but some attribute aren't present, like 'weight' for example.
Please have patience and descrive me the successive steps to create a correct title block.

Thank you...

Using NX 8 and TC9.1
