3d Note not Visible

I have searched for a solution but can't find out why my 3d notes will not show up in the graphics window. I am using Wildfire 5.0 M060. There is no "model_note_display" config option. On my toolbar I can turn on & off annotations. The part that confuses me is that I can create dimension annotations & they show up with no problem. When I create the notes they show up in the model tree but I cant seem to figure out why they are not visible in the graphics window. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mike

Hello Mike,

Kevin and Martin are both correct but you do have to put this in your config.pro "model_note_display YES" .

Remember that there are some variables that are not in your config.pro but they do exist, if you do not have them in config.pro they will assume a default value.

There is an icon for the 3D note display that you can add to the tool bars from the customize screen. The option is now a hidden one. You can type the option in and specify yes or no as the value and it should be accepted in the list of options.

Mike,

I guess that you have to put your note into annotation feature to be able to show it in graphics window. Please post some example model to enable us to help you.

Thanks. Adding the "model_note_display YES" to my config file fixed the problem.
