I always wondered why the revision turned blue when you started typing. Where was the text for rev.2 supposed to go? The team that developed the revision table must not have thought very far ahead. Today I just discovered that the first revision takes its text from the "Comments" field or the drawing's iProperties.

We're going to start using Inventor's revision table instead of our old system, so I'm trying to poke around here and see what are all the problems we can expect.


I can't speak directly to your experience (we were waiting to upgrade to 2011 until everyone had new workstations, the second one just came in this week) but wouldn't "Today's Date" just change every time you opened the drawing?
