Working with Annotations

You can create annotations on a 3D view or directly on a model. The created annotations are displayed in the tree.

3D Views and 2D views get automatically updated with any geometric changes in the product. All the annotations also get updated accordingly.

For touch devices, you can drag and rotate the model to add annotations. Annotations are added to the geometry. By default, the Lock Rotation is inactive in View >Touch Mode.
