Custom Property in Automatic Rev table, possible?

    I want to add a custom property cell to my revision table. The custom
    property is called "Drawn_By".
    I put this in the cell

    $PRPSHEET:"Drawn_By"

    Since I want the custom property to come from the model. When I click
    out of the cell, it displays $PRPSHEET:"Drawn_By" NOT the custom
    property text.

    Ive tried different custom properties, even $PRP:"Drawn_By" to get the
    custom property from the drawing itself, it doesnt work.

    Any ideas?

    You could add a column and add the custom property to that. Add the row
    (insert row), Click on column properties, Choose custom properties and
    select the property you want to add.

    I tried that. I get $PRPSHEET:"Drawn_By" shown.

    See above.

    Hi,

    Our Gold Partner product ToolWorks BOM Manager can solve this problem. You
    can create revision notes on your models and assemblies using the "revision
    note" feature. These notes are saved as Custom Properties that can be shown
    on your drawing template.

    You can download a free 30 days trial from our website www.toolworks.info.

    Regards
    Jess

    Anyone figure this out yet? Is it not possible to do this with the new
    Revision table?
