Sketch Symbol missing when sheet format is copied to drawing template

Hello All,

 

Inventor - 2023 

 

I have a drawing template 'A' which has few sheet formats and most of these sheet formats have a sketch symbol included with them.

 

So in Template 'A' if I double click the sheet format, everything works fine, even the sketch symbol automatically comes at the desired location.

 

Now I have another Drawing Template 'B' which does not have the sheet format, so I copied the sheet format from 'A' to 'B' , but if I double click the same sheet format in 'B' , the sketch symbol is not visible.

 

Kindly tell me what to do about this? How to resolve this.

I can't say anything for sure without having access to the files, but if it's a sketched symbol referenced in the format, you'll probably need to copy the sketched symbol itself as well.

I copied the sketch symbol to the new template before copying the Sheet format and checked, still not working

Hi! It sounds like a bug to me. I will work with the project team to understand it better.

Hi! I have contacted the project team. Unfortunately, it is currently a limitation in Sheet Format workflow. Sketch symbols are not included when the format is replicated.

Many thanks!
