I have managed to save a frame with a development disclaimer in Annotation for our company needs. However, I need to do that same thing in 3D viewport. Is there a way to have a disclaimer shown as default in a 3D viewport and also be able to print any designs with the disclaimer printed on it as well? Any help anyone can provde for this newby would be great.

    Go to the Annotation tab.

    Click the annotation plane FLAT TO SCREEN

    Create the note and place it on the screen.

    This will remain on the screen at all times as long as the graphics toolbar has "show annotation displayed.

    If you have view states, make sure it is always displayed for each saved view.

    Why cant you attach a note with a leader when using "Flat to Screen" annotative plane? This was available before Creo. Am I missing something?

    This can still be done with Flat To Screen and Geometry location.

    Thanks for the quick response. We may be using a different releases of Creo 2, I say this because my annotation dialog box is named "Annotation Plane Manager" and your is "Annotation Plane" and the look is a little different. In any case, when I change the settings per your video it allows me to place the note on an object, but there is still no choice for a leader. Is there a parameter I need to turn on? Or any other reasons I don't get the "Note Types" menu to assign with leader. I do get the "Notes Types" menu when using any other annotation planes other than Flat to Screen.
