Text loses link to parameter.

Hi all

I have a text embossed to the cylinder face. I use a Ilogic rule to change the text size according to the cylinder diameter. So far everything is fine. But the problem is: Part of the text is linked to a parameter called size and is meant to change if the "Size"  changes. It does until you change the diameter and after it loses the link to the parameter. Ipt (inventor 2020) attached.

Hi! Many thanks for sharing the file! I took a quick look. I don't think I fully understand the issue. When I change the diameter or size, the text and the emboss updates accordingly. Is this not the expected behavior?

Do you mind elaborating the exact steps to reproduce the issue?

Many thanks!

Hi Johnson

thanks for having a look at it.

Yes the Ilogic rule works. But as you see in my screenshot (1st message) that "120" is driven by the parameter "Size"

After changing the diameter, if you try to change the "Size", nothing happens and if you go to the text you can see it has loosen the link to the "Size"

Hi! I see the issue now. I was testing it on an internal build targeting 2021.2 update. It works there. But, I do see the issue on 2020.3. The 2020.3.3 update is available and 2020.3.4 will be available soon. Please feel free to test it. It may have been fixed there.

Many thanks!
