Hello all,
My company recently switched to 2017, and I am missing a feature that I was sure was available in 2015.
I am trying to link a configuration specific custom property while editing the sheet format. For example, I have a model that has two configurations: configuration 1 and configuration 2. EACH of these configurations has a custom property (config. 1, prop. 1/config. 1, prop. 2/config. 2 prop. 1/ config. 2, prop. 2). I cannot link these properties while on the "Edit Sheet Format" screen. See screen shots below:
normal sheet view with a view of configuration 1.
Editing the drawing format with my annotations ready for linking to their appropriate titles
showing the custom properties and what they SHOULD be linking to
showing that the configuration 2 properties do not show up in the selection box
The way we set up our configuration specific properties seems different than what you sample is showing. We have our "property-1" and that is what is different for each configuration. When we need to link to a configuration that we are not actively showing we place a view of that configuration off the edge of the sheet and have the note reference the unseen view. I am pretty certain this isn't best practice but I've got bigger battles to fight with our standards than that.
EDIT: Upon re-reading your post I realized that you are attempting something that I never tried so please ignore anything above that is irrelevant.
