Can Feature Names be linked to a Dim Value in that feature?

Hi All,
Working with many ref geometry features, especially planes, is there
any way to link a Feature Name to a Dim Value within that Feature?
An example would be a plane defined at a distance of 10" from the Std
Top Plane. Instead of seeing "Plane 1" for the name, can I set it to
show " 10" "? I don't need the word 'plane' since the icon is there.
My planes change constantly during the design process, and renaming
hunderds of planes would take too long.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks Keith,
I should clarify, I want to define the plane as I normally would.
Using the same example...a parallel plane define above the Standard SW
Top Plane by 10". The dim value is entered in the Feature Manager, and
becomes Plane1 in the tree.
Once completed, I'd like to rename the Plane1 in the tree to the value
used to define the plane. In this case, 10, or 10". I know I can
manually do this. However, I want it linked, since I have hundreds of
planes, many of which will change their defined values durign the
design process. There's just too much opportuntiy for human error with
manual renaming.
Thanks,
Dan

 

Yes, I absolutely want the Feature Name value to change if I change the
Feature Dimension Value, and your answer was my suspicion...Thanks.

 

You might have a problem if SW allowed this because all feature names
must be unique. If two features were named by dimension and the dims
happened to be the same there would be a problem. However, a macro
feature might be able to rename a given feature.

 

To prevent that specific problem, use the API topic
"FeatureManager::IsNameUsed"
