3D Notes for holes in Creo 1.0

We used to use 3d notes display to toggle on the hole notes when convenient. This option seems to have disappeared in Creo parametric 1.0. How do you turn on/off the hole notes?

    Doug,

    Thanks - Glad it's not completely gone... yet.

    Along those lines... Is there an easier way to create RefDims. in Creo 1.0 than I mentioned earlier for pre WF-3 thru WF-5?

    One of the other things, once you have "shown" the hole note is you can add
    the notes to different view states. This provides the control for,
    basically, 3D drawing type views.



    By default, my hole annotations are not displaying at all until I "show"
    them. Bill, are yours displayed upon creation.



    Last but not least, there is also the ability to setup a partdesign.dtl
    file.



    Hope that helps,

    In Wildfire 5.0 they are displayed upon creation.  Nothing has to be done to turn on /off the hole notes but toggle the "3d notes display".  This is true in part, assembly, and manufacturing modes.

    In Creo 1.0, they are not displayed on creation.  It looks like there is no way to just view them, you have to explicitly show them.  Not great for the way we use it.

    Regards,
    Bill

    The hole notes are not automatically displayed in Creo Paramteric. You can "Show" the notes of any hole feature from theAnnotate tab. Select the annotate tab, select show annotations, select the notes from the dialog box and select any hole feature. The annotations will be placed on the current combination state (controlled by the camera).


    Also, reference dimensions can be created as well from the Annotate tab. Use the "annotations" pull donw under on the far right of the tab and the UI to create reference dimensions hasn't changed.
