For this example, we're going to insert 3 fields.


 


- Property(ies) and "Type" of property:


  • Specify the property or text to insert; the property can be specified manually or selected from the drop-down list.


 


  • For each field, you must select the type of field to retrieve; selecting certain types may gray out some of the bubble options.


This field can be of the following type:


    • "Text"—the text entered in the field will be displayed.
    • "Properties": The displayed text takes on the value of the property, if it exists in the selected component.
    • " Part Number ": The displayed text retrieves the part number of a welded assembly.
    • "Quantity": The text displayed shows the number of identical components.
    • "Component Reference,"


In this example, the following fields are retrieved:

1 - The file name, in the list of properties.
