Hey,

 

Thickness is given in the parameterlist.

thickness1.PNG

You could add the Iproperty to your 2D-drawing by

iProperties.Value("Custom", "PropertyName")= Parameter("Part1.ipt.Thickness")

nd add the text to your title block like;

thickness2.PNG

Hope this will help you,

Kind Regards!

Hi! It should work. I don't understand why the change in thickness does not update in the drawing. Something is wrong. Please share an example here so forum experts can take a look.

Many thanks!
