in some manufacturing situations or business systems that detail one part one drawing it is often required that the part (or assembly) need have the same revision letter (in the model iProperties) as the idw.
situation 1. to use the idw rev table functionality it is necessary to first revise the idw and then to ensure that the model has the same new revision letter that the IDW obtained from the "Add Revision" function.
or
situation 2. to use the model iProperty rev letter you need to do a bit of manual handling afterwards in the idw revision table, or one or two other things that can be used instead of the inventor rev table.
to save time, i would like to see an option in the document or application settings, that when selected would serve to allow the iProperty (ie latest revision letter) in the idw to automatically always be pushed back to the model as part of the "Add Revision" function when it is fired in the idw.
