Annotations in different views_Drawing

Hi everyone,

 

Would appreciate your help.

 

  • I'm doing a 2d drawing from a 3D model. In the 2D drawing (.drw), I have two combined states, i.e. A and B.
  • Now I have some annotations in my 3D model which I was able to pull into my 2D drawing for state A. 
  • Issue is once I have the annotations in state A, I cannot get the same annotation in State B (unless I do manual annotation). Either the annotation is in state A or B, not in both.

Question: Is it possible to have the same annotations in state A and B at the same time?

In the context of a drawing, an annotation will only appear once. Creo in general will not display the same annotation in multiple locations within a drawing. It is likely driven by the intent to not have redundant dimensions etc.

Thank you tbraxton. So only way out is manual annotations in my case.

 

By doing manual annotations, we are just doing what creo does not want (aka redundant dimensions).

There may be a workaround within the MBD environment. Perhaps someone else will add to this thread with some options.
