I have gotten in the habit of using a leader text with a custom iproperty to do material call outs on my drawings. I have been doing the first one then copy/pasting the leader onto each piece i want to call out.
This worked flawlessly in 2010 and has worked well previously in 2012. For some reason it is not working at all in this particular .idw.
work flow is to create the first instance, copy. right click outside the view border and select paste. Then attach to as many different parts as needed.
attached is the error message I get.
The custom iproperty is text. 1/2 a36 or 4x4x3/8 Angle
curious if anyone has an idea.
Solved! Go to Solution.
NEVER MIND. The BOM in the top level assembly ( parts list on .idw created from here) had the column heading Material instead of MATERIAL.
fixed it right up.
Merry Christmas and or other appropriate Holiday greeting to you all.
