Hi 

 

I am inserting  copy right notes from sketch symbol. It has year in the text. I need to make year to change automatically without changing manually. Please see attached image.

 

Is it possible in sketch symbol?

 

Thanks

You can use any of the Date iproperties in the Symbol, but the only way i know of to get rid of the days and months will remove them EVERYWHERE (Inventor uses the Windows Option for date formatting)

 

Maybe use the custom iproperties and use some iLogic to update the year on file opening?

iLogic saving to an iProperty might be the only way. Something like:
iProperties.Value("Custom", "iPropYear") = Today.Year
