Insert property fields in text components to add content that is linked directly to drawing components.
Label text generated by most property fields is dynamic and is updated whenever changes are made to a drawing.
As you view the property field in the edit pane of the Text Component Editor, the characters are defined and separated by the following symbols:
Character |
Description |
---|---|
<[ |
Begin property field |
( |
Begin modifier list |
| |
Modifier separator |
) |
End modifier list |
]> |
End property field |
For example, the property field format may look like this:
<[Attribute(Unit|Precision|Rounding|Sign|Capitalization|Format|Direction|Output)]>
Property fields attributes are formatted with predefined modifiers, such as measurement units (acres, feet, and meters), precision, and rounding.
