Toolkit API support for surface finish symbols on drawing

I am a software developer in the company that develops auxiliary applications for PTC Creo Parametric.

We are working with PTC Creo Parametric 4-8 and the corresponding C++ Toolkit API.

Our goal is to keep the same presentation of annotations in 2D drawing views and 3D combined states.

C++ Toolkit API does not allow to check appearance of surface finish symbols on the drawing (according to the article

CS21326):

It is not possible to detect on what drawing view a model owned surface finish symbol is displayed.

It is not possible to collect drawing owned surface finish symbols and detect their drawing view too.

Currently, our users have to check the difference in surface finish symbols appearance in 2D and 3D and fix it manually.

API extension is requested to automate this process.
