Hi

You need to remove all annotations that are based on dimensions, or simpler all annotations. So you could do it much nicer than the code below ... but it could be work something like this:

/*====================================================================*\
FUNCTION : removeAllAnnotations()
PURPOSE  :
\*====================================================================*/

ProError removeAllAnnotationsDtlVisitAction(ProDtlitem* item, ProError filt_status, ProAppData appdata) {
	ProDrawingAnnotationErase(ProDrawing(item->owner), item);
	return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;
}

ProError removeAllAnnotationsDimensionVisitAction(ProDimension* dimension, ProError filt_status, ProAppData appdata) {
	ProDrawing * drw = NULL;
	if (appdata != NULL)
		drw = (ProDrawing*)appdata;
	ProDrawingAnnotationErase(appdata != NULL ? *drw : ProDrawing(dimension->owner), dimension);
	return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;
}

ProError removeAllAnnotationsSolidVisitAction(ProSolid solid, ProError filt_status, ProAppData appdata) {
	ProSolidDimensionVisit(solid, PRO_B_TRUE, removeAllAnnotationsDimensionVisitAction, NULL, appdata);
	ProSolidDimensionVisit(solid, PRO_B_FALSE, removeAllAnnotationsDimensionVisitAction, NULL, appdata);
	
	return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;
}

//FUNCTION
		ProDrawing drw = ProDrawing(mdl);
		int sheet;
		if (ProDrawingCurrentSheetGet(drw, &sheet) == PRO_TK_NO_ERROR) {
			ProDrawingDtlnoteVisit(ProDrawing(mdl), NULL, sheet, removeAllAnnotationsDtlVisitAction, NULL, NULL);
			ProDrawingDtlentityVisit(ProDrawing(mdl), NULL, sheet, removeAllAnnotationsDtlVisitAction, NULL, NULL);
		}
		ProDrawingDimensionVisit(drw, PRO_DIMENSION, removeAllAnnotationsDimensionVisitAction, NULL, NULL);
		ProDrawingDimensionVisit(drw, PRO_REF_DIMENSION, removeAllAnnotationsDimensionVisitAction, NULL, NULL);

		ProDrawingSolidsVisit(drw, removeAllAnnotationsSolidVisitAction, NULL, &drw);
// FUNCTION END

Hi KB,

Get ProDrawing and ProView handle of the required model you need to clean dimensions in it.

Then pass these two handles into that ProDrawingDimensionsCleanup() function.

Make sure to use "s" in the ProDrawingDimensionsCleanup function.
