Automatic dimension of flat pattern

Hello all,

 

I am trying to to create automation for flat patterns within drawings. I have set up my coding to iterate through all of the parts of an assembly and then to create a drawing that will save to a new number and then place the views I need. The problem I have now is being able to dimension the flats. I have read about using work points for parts and assemblies, but I haven't seen anything useful for flat patterns. According to the API model, there isn't any functionality for work points on a flat pattern. My other option might be to use attributes, but again I haven't had any luck. 

If anyone has been able to accomplish this task or have any ideas on how to do this I would greatly appreciate the help.

 

Thanks,
