Importing an Annotaion Set

Importing an Annotation Set Using Logical Reroute

Import Annotation Set lets you import an annotation set from an existing 3D part to an another 3D part using logical reroute.


Before you begin: Create a geometrical tolerancing and annotation template using Geometrical Tolerancing and Annotation Template Creation/Upgrade . To make the Template section available, clear the Disable template creation check box under Annotation set, available in Me > Preferences > App Preferences > 3D Modeling > Mechanical Systems > 3D Tolerancing & Annotation > Administration section.
  1. Select the Logical Reroute On option.
  2. In the Import From box, select the annotation set to be imported from the source 3D part.
  3. Select the geometrical sets and bodies to which reroute of the annotation set is to be applied.
    By default, the reroute is applied to all bodies and geometrical sets present in the target 3D part.
  4. Select the Import Once check box.
    The annotation set is imported once.
    Note: If you clear the Import Once check box, the annotation set is imported several times; once for each selected body and annotation set.
  5. Select the As Result With Link check box to import the annotations with their links maintained with the reference.
    The non-editable annotations are applied on the selected feature with the links to original annotations. In the tree, the annotation nodes appear with masks on them.
