part parameters coming automaticall in drawing parameters

 I have old part and its drawing file. Both the part and drawing tiles have user parameters with same name as shown below

this is part parameter:

this is drawing parameter:

2.PNG

Now, the question is : when i change the part user parameter, the drawing user parameter is changing automatically.

I just want to know how this is working. surprisingly , I haven't found any iLogic rule which is updating it and

no parameter is  linked or imported

can anyone know how is it working or how to implement it.

Hi @taher.basha.  I know you said that you haven't found any iLogic rule for this, but even if there are no 'internal' rules (rules saved within that document), it might still be possible that an external rule may be acting upon one of them.  Have you checked within the Event Triggers dialog (on the Manage tab > iLogic panel)?  Someone could have created an external iLogic rule, that is to be triggered on 'Any Model Parameter Change' or 'Any User Parameter Change' event, that writes the value of that parameter out to the drawing.  The part's parameter could get copied to the drawing by a VBA macro too, but it would have to get triggered to run in a different, and more complex way, such as with a custom event handler code, which is a lot less likely.  The third, and maybe most remote possibility, is that there may be a custom Inventor AddIn running in the background, that is making this happen, for some reason.

Hi @WCrihfield
I searched entire part and drawing file. But, found nothing.
there is no macro or external rule or event trigger.
I just took the part file which was built in Inventor 2014 and opened in 2022 version.
It is working same as it was working in 2014
