Positioning the Annotations Automatically

You can position all the annotations in the selected view for better readability.


Before you begin: Open a 3D shape with annotations created on it.
  1. From the Annotation section of the action bar, click Annotations Positioning .
  2. Select the required view.

    You can select all the views except multi-plane section views (offset and aligned) and associated sub-views.

    Tip: You can also right-click the annotation set or required view, and select Annotations/Features > Position all features .

    • All the annotations in the view are positioned avoiding overlap, positioning outside the geometrical elements, grouping similar type of annotations, managing interruptions on dimension lines, for example, to ensure the readability.
    • The bodies of all the annotations are positioned excluding annotation leader lines and dimension lines to avoid overlapping.
