Good Afternoon All,
I am trying to link the zone location of an annotation or view on a Creo drawing. I have my location grid defined in the format with the columns and rows referencing the proper values ( columns=1-8 and rows=A-D). I can toggle the display of this location grind on or off in the format or a drawing created from that format. However, I would really like to create annotation that can be moved around and report it's current location into a different annotation.
Example:
I have a "flag note" that is located on Sheet 2, Zone 3A on a drawing. In the general notes on Sheet 1 of the drawing I would like to reference the location of the "flag note" and have this update if the flag note happens to get moved around.
My specific question is:
What parameter or syntax do I need to use to call out the location of an annotation (note/symbol) or view?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I searched the forum and found some references to this topic, but nothing that answered my question. There is apparently a good PTC lesson about this topic on their website. Unfortunately, our maintenance just expired and I do not have access to PTC support.
Thanks for your help!
Sincerely,
Nat McCormick
