NX8.5 Attributes Callout Not passing from assembly to Drawing

NX8.5 Attributes Callout Not passing from assembly to Drawing

NX8.5 Attributes Callout Not passing from assembly to Drawing

(OP)
I am having a small issue with attributes not being passing down from the assembly to the master drawing.

For Example I have a five part assembly in NX. I have assigned the "callout" attribute to the components in the assembly.

Now when I make a new drawing (using master model concept), I insert a new parts list, these callouts show up in the parts list just fine.

Now when I go back to my master assembly and modify the assembly components callout attributes, these changes do not reflect the changes that I made in the assembly, in the drawing. In the drawing these attributes still display the old Callout. Also if I right click on the parts in the assembly navigator while in the drawing and review the attributes the values do not match what I changed in the assembly. Is there something I could be doing wrong?

Thanks

Shane

You may need to do a parts list update
is this in Teamcenter ?

RE: NX8.5 Attributes Callout Not passing from assembly to Drawing

(OP)
Yes we are using teamcenter. When I edit the Sequence numbers in structure manager in teamcenter these numbers come over correctly in the parts list. It is when I change the "callout" attribute in the master assembly is when I run into the issues. I have done part lists updates and the numbers do not change. We just moved to NX8.5 from NX7.5. Thanks for the feedback I also have the callout synched with the DB sequence in teamcenter in the customer defaults.
