Add Properties to title block, Sheet2

I have added the following property to sheet1 of a drawing
$PRPSHEET:"PartNo"
It work correctly.

When I add it to sheet2, the information it not propagated to sheet2

Am I missing something?

Thanks
Monty

 

Did you make the entry for $PRPSHEET:"PartNo" on Sheet 2? If not,
that's why not. Fields in a title block don't propagate automatically,
you need to enter them.

 

Yes, $PRPSHEET:"PartNo" is in the title bold of both sheet1 and sheet2
still no luck

 

Not being able to see what you have, I'm going to cover some basic
causes. If you've done these already, then good, but I'm listing them
as just a basic starting point for a check list of things to look at:

1. Look for typo's on the one that isn't work. Even something as
simple as an extra space can disrupt the link. Also, make sure the
issue is not refresh view related.

2. Cntl-Q when you are on the second sheet to see if the field
refreshes to show the correct value.

3. Are you assigning the value via a macro or through SolidWorks
Properties editor? If through a macro, try it directly through the SW
Prop editor (File Pulldown>Properties>Custom Tab), to see if it makes a
difference.

4. If you typed the link code in manually the text edit window? If you
did it manually through the text edit window, it will not work. It
will display just what you typed.

5. Is the problem that nothing is showing up on sheet 2, or that the
wrong value is showing up? Check to make sure the linked note is on a
visiable layer.

LMK if this helps.
