Annotation element disappears from drawing containing two views with two different assembly representations

 

Creo Parametric 2.0 M110 64-bit

 

Info:
1.] my_asm.asm contains one user defined simlified representation named WITHOUT_MIDDLE
2.] my_drw.drw two views
3.] first view contains Master representation and annotation element (driven dimension), this AE references middle.prt surface
4.] second view contains WITHOUT_MIDDLE representation

 

Procedure to reproduce the problem is recorded in uploaded video:
1.] open my_drw.drw ... annotation element is displayed ... OK
2.] open WITHOUT_MIDDLE representation of my_asm.asm in second window
3.] switch to drawing window ... annotation element is not present ... Why ?

 

I think that Creo behaviour is not correct. The contents of the drawing must be independent on simlified representation opened in second window.

I tried to use combined views and I got the same behavior!: Dimensions placed in combined views becomesuppressed in a drawing when another simplified representation is selected and regenerated. And this issue was already reported to R&D as SPR 2164447 & SPR 2853360 please refer to this case Solution CS112324 at:

I hate solutions that aren't.    This is not a "solution".
