TECHNICAL NOTES///
Conversation-specific knowledge extracted from the solidworks multi-body metadata discussion.
QUESTION / CONTEXTI need something explained to me. In solid works they created a multi body weldment out of 2x2x1/8 tube. What im trying to understand is how can I pull that meta data when detailing parts so I dont have to type what the material is on the drawing
IMPORTANT GUIDANCE

- --
- The size (2x2x1/8) comes from the *profile sketch name*
- The material is often:
- NOT assigned automatically
- OR buried in a cut list property
- Right click Cut List Folder
- Click Update
