Yes it seems logical to be able to attach symbols or notes to 3D annotations.

Thanks Fabrice for the idea.

This product idea is a duplication of another one: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Creo-MBD-enhance-improve-PMI-functionality/idi-p/... 

The functionality to relate (offset) symbols & surface finish to other annotations in MBD was delivered in Creo 10.

The relevant toolkit APIs for this functionality are supported as well. As it goes for notes, it is possible to create a symbol with the relevant note text and relate it to another annotation. In the future we will expand the capability to relate also notes to other annotations in MBD.
