What needs to happen to get the Drawing Property "Drawing last changed date" to update?

StephenGStephenG Member Posts: 380 ✭✭✭
I have a note containing the "Drawing last changed date" metadata property and it is not updating.



I updated a drawing to reflect a change made to a sheet metal part and the drawing properties value did not change.

I would think that ANY change, including movement of annotation within the drawing/sheet would trigger updating the value.

    My metadata was playing up yesterday too.  I gave up with a drawing thinking things might be slower and not updating quickly because of the new release. I am about to log back in and see if properties are updating for me now, hopefully, I don't have to log a ticket.

    I agree. Any changes should update the property. It has always been unclear to me what the minimum trigger is

    It appears the trigger is a change made to the drawing properties.

    I just changed the drawing property on 2024-12-07 7:30 PM PST and the "Drawing last changed date" returned 2024-12-08. There appear to be a time zone problem here. I will report it as a bug.
