I know how to use a DT to drive dimensions but how can you use a DT to simply populate itself with existing dims, etc? Since you can show a DT on a drawing as a table I think this is pretty darned important to be able to do this. I just can't figure it out. Any tips?

You can only get it automatically populated when you initially create it (I think). When you create it, use the auto-create option. It will pop up a list of parameters, and you have to select the ones you want.
Yes I tried that. Works only for the config you have in view. So if I have a list of configs and say D1@sketch2 dim changes via equation and is different for each config I'm screwed. Doesn't anyone else think this would be a useful thing to be able to do in SWx DT's?
