Issue: Annotations not showing in drawing Views with different combination states. There are three different annotations. I want to show two annotations in one view and the third annotation in the other view-the two views are in different combination states but of the same model (assembly).

•Two different views with different combination states.

•The annotations are not showing even after selecting the annotation tab and selecting show annotations. The annotations are in a part within the assembly.

•In the model (an assembly) the annotations show in both combination states with no issues.

•In the drawing they do not show.

When a part in assembly is substituted with simp rep, part dimensions cannot shown in drawing views for assembly.

Hi Martin,

 

Thanks for you reply. This helps!

What is the significance of creating copies vs referencing existing display states?

Hi thank you for suggesting all these articles.
Can you point out exactly which of the articles have resolved the issue?

It may be due to the model create not in Sequence of order of Sketching and dimensional sequencing feature creation. 

If the feature is generated in order to the sequence and considering the sketching and dimension are relates during creation of the feature (considering the views and sides) will show the annotation as well.

 

Try the method of feature order with defining dimensional order creation.
