Inserting an Annotation in a Note from a Drawing

  1. Create or edit an existing note.
    note_w_dimension.gif
  2. Select an existing annotation or dimension in the graphics area.

    If you select a dimension with a symbol or tolerance, the items are included in the note.
    note_w_dimension_2.gif

  3. Click PM_OK.gif.

    To edit the annotation or dimension, you must edit the existing annotation or dimension in the drawing sheet. You cannot edit annotations or dimensions in notes if they were inserted from an existing annotation or dimension. When you edit the existing annotation or dimension, all instances of the annotation and dimension are updated in the sheet.
    You can hide the annotation or dimension using View > Hide/Show Annotations.
