K-Factor note on drawing using iLogic

[Greatwhitenorth]

All,

I'm wondering if anyone knows a way, using iLogic, to get the K-Factor from a flat pattern sheet metal view on an idw drawing and add it as a note.

I'd like a rule that would access the flat pattern on the drawing, get the K-Factor value and then create a note that says, for example, "K-Factor Value = 44".

I see in the iLogic Snippets there's a Get Active KFactor under the Sheet Metal section, but I don't know where to start.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Bob

create a user parameter in the sheetmetal part lets call it mykfactor

it must be  ul (unitless)

create a ilogic rule

mykfactor = Sheetmetal.ActiveKFactor

so now that you have a user parameter with the active k factor value simply create a note on the idw and insert the user parameter into the note

Thanks swordmaster.  Sorry, but I should have stated in my original post that I would like to do this without modifying the .ipt files.  I was hoping there was a way to just read the value from the flat pattern.
