How to "reapply" a Text Expression with a Linear Transform

jj_bankertjj_bankert Member Posts: 4
Document I'm working on: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a7ab04be3848123351993a93/v/15a53cefe34ac622a2433858/e/847b837a1d79ba5871584f37

I'm making radius gauges (for determining real world fillets). I know they already exist, but it's nice to get some more exercise.
I use a linear pattern and a variable to change the radius from 1mm to 10mm. I also imprint the size with text that is defined by an expression (in the size label sketch). It looks like the text expression is not recalculated, but the radii are.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug?

    It does look like you've hit a bug. I've filed an issue on this, sorry for the inconvenience. In the meantime, I think you could work around this with a custom feature: https://forum.onshape.com/discussion/comment/101716

    Thanks for the response! The fastest workaround for me was to export the 10 different versions for this project xD The linked feature looks cool though.
