Hello folks
I was trying to map model "Custom Properties" to drawing file data card, and I've got it mapped.
But the problem that I can't get the "Author" and the "Title" mapped from "Summary Information" to drawing file data card.
Does anybody knows how to get it mapped from "Summary Information" to drawing file data card ?
I hope you can help me figure out how to do that.
(attached picture for describing the problem)

Hi Mike -
As Jeff noted, use the Summary block to map the variable (see attached).

Hello
Thats not what I'm trying to do,
as I said I want to map the "Author" of the sldprt file to the drawing slddrw data card
for example
when you click on the slddrw inside PDM Vault and view the data card, in the title and the author field there must be information
taken from the part file, not the drawing file.
I have the title and the author fields Empty in the "Summary Information" dialog of the Drawing file
and I have the information (Author, Title) filled in the sldprt file "Summary Information" dialog.
so my question is How to map Author and Title from SLDPRT file "Summary Information" automatically to the SLDDRW data card.
Regards
Hi Mike -
I read your description again:
To be clear:
I do not think there is a way to do this.

Hello Jeff
I think its not recommended to replicate the data to custom properties, specially if there is legacy data.
but I would like to know if there is something like add in to replicate the data automatically from summary information into custom properties
Regards
Hello Joy
Thanks for replying, thats exactly what i'm trying to do, and It didn't work
I've tried everything by changing the block and attribute name
but nothing works
So I understand now that It's not possible to map summary information
From SLDPRT to SLDDRW data card and that way works only for custom properties.

Hi Mike

and you will find everything detailed
