Problem
This article goes over how to link a note in a SOLIDWORKS Drawing to the Subassembly in the Top-Level Assembly Drawing View. This is useful when needing to show the properties of the Subassembly instead of the Top-level.
Solution
- Open SOLIDWORKS and open or start a Drawing with a Drawing View of the Top-level Assembly
-
Create a note and attach it to the Drawing View
-
In the Property Window, click "Link to Property"
-
In the Property Window, change to "Model found here" with the dropdown set to "Select component or other drawing view"
-
In the Property Manager panel to the left, drag down the dot so we can see the Drawing Feature tree while these note windows are open
-
With the added window dragged down, expand the feature tree for the drawing view so the subassembly is shown in the tree and select it by left-clicking
-
Use the "Property Name" dropdown to select a property and click "OK" to finish linking the Note
