Additional fields in the properties dialog of the selected drawing

[windchen]

Hello，
thank you for your time！
Is there a way to define additional fields in the properties dialog of the selected drawing. Because I want to add information to the selected drawing more concisely, and then extract information including the coordinates of the drawing at one time for subsequent processing. What I’ve done so far is to associate the textbox inside the drawing with the drawing, but that’s not particularly smart. Or can the textbox be redefined？
Thank you so much.

Does this thread help ?

KiCad 6: Drawing Sheet Editor - Predefined Keywords?

Thanks for the explanation, it confirmed how i thought it should be, unfortunately in my case it doesn’t seem to work: my Drawing sheet editor template: [Editor] my schematic page: [Schematic] my text variables: [variables] my builtin data in page settings: [builtin] it seems that only builtin data is correctly substituted, the variables are substitute with the name(?) of the variable, not it’s contents. any suggestion? Version: 6.0.4, ubuntu22.04 P.S. …with KiCAD nigltly seems…

Could you be more specific about what you mean by “selected drawing” and “properties dialog”, please?
If you’re on a different language version, then use the terms there or make a couple of screenshots.

EDIT: just saw you’re new, so posting screenshots won’t work.

Thank you for your help, I have read this thread, the operation I want to perform is in the pcb editor.

Thank you for your help, I want to modify the properties of the selected drawing in the pcb editor, that is to add the information of the text box in the picture to the properties of the drawing itself.
