Annotation Rules
To ensure that the Annotation MI drawing file retains its 3D or 2D association for further use in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling, you must observe the following rules when using the functionality on the Annotation tab in Creo Elements/Direct Drafting:
• Do not copy one drawing in another drawing.
• Do not manually insert one or more sheets into another drawing.
• Do not manually insert one or more sheets in another drawing and do no manually insert views into a sheet (using the part definition commands of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting). Only use the buttons in the General group and the Sheet group provided by the Creo Elements/Direct Drafting Annotation tab.
• Do not change or delete info texts beginning with "SD_" or "DOCU" or "AM_".
• Do not modify view parts or parts below view parts with the buttons on the Modify tab of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting. Only use the buttons in the View group provided by the Creo Elements/Direct Drafting Annotation tab.
• Do not scale view parts or parts below view parts using the buttons in the Parts group on the Structure tab of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting. Only use Scale View in the View group on the Annotation tab of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting.
• Do not change the scale of the TOP part or the parts below the TOP part with the 
Scale buttons in the Parts group on the Structure tab of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting.
Scale buttons in the Parts group on the Structure tab of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting.• Do not change the owner of a part or subassembly which belongs to the drawing in Creo Elements/Direct Drafting.
• Do not use Creo Elements/Direct Drafting to smash or gather any part created by Creo Elements/Direct Annotation (sheets, frames, view parts, parts below view parts, sketches).
• Do not create detail parts in Creo Elements/Direct Drafting — these would not be associative to the 3D model. Use the Detail commands on the Annotation tab of Creo Elements/Direct Modeling to create detail views.
