Hi,

I would like to sync the part's attribute the the drawings attribute using a journal.

Is there any code that will let me do that using a journal.

Thanks in advance,

Stan

So you want to use an attribute from the model file in the drawing? If so, that can be done without the use of a journal. The attributes are usually taken care of by the drawing template. If the template wasn't set up for this particular attribute, you can still make use of it in your drawing. If you want to show the attribute value in a note, start the note command and go to the "symbols" section, change the category to "relationships" and you can then insert a part or object attribute as needed.
