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

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.

Answer received from PTC support engineer on 30-June-2015:

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:
