Pro|E: Location Callouts: What Sheet and Grid a View can be found on.

This is used to create a parametric note that identifies the sheet and/or drawing zone a specific view (detail, section, etc) is located in on a drawing. A reverse callout is also available, giving the location of the detail or cross-section's parent view. For drawing zone callout, a grid must be defined.

Callouts:

• Grid letter and number: &pos_loc:view:<view name>
• Sheet number: &sheet:view:<view name>
• Where the parent view is: &pos_loc:parent_note:<view name>
• What sheet the parent view is on: &sheet:parent_note:<view name>

<view name> is the name in the properties pop-up for the view. If it's not found, then *** will be displayed. It fails if there is a "-" in the view name.

Grid Setup: To make the grid callout work, you will need to define a "Location Callout Grid" in the format file (.frm) for your drawing. In that file pick File>Page Setup, then on the Location Grid menu, click Define and follow the steps.

Example Drawing Note:

- See Detail A at B2 on Sheet 3.

Callout for Note:
In the note's properties window, type:

- See Detail A at &pos_loc:view:detail_a on &sheet:view:detail_a
