Repeat Regions and Notes

Repeat Regions and Notes

Repeat Regions and Notes

(OP)
The company I work for has parameters setup in their Start Parts that auto fill in our BOMS and Notes.
The notes we put when we draft the parts looks like this:

&model_name:324
&DESCRIPTION:324
SCALE:&scale:324

I would like to add a QTY line at the bottom, but I do not know how to automate the total quantity of that detail in the assembly.
Is it possible to use a Repeat Region like feature when creating notes?

Can someone help me out?

RE: Repeat Regions and Notes

I don't think so - the values in a repeat region are only available to the regions and balloons and a balloon can only be applied to a component of the assembly the repeat region is driven by. So if you are trying to back-drive from the assembly to the component that won't work.
