Unvalidated Annotations

When start up GD&T Advisor on a model for the first time and that model includes annotations that have been created with the native Creo annotation tools (i.e., not created from within GD&T Advisor), this dialog provides the following options:

• Delete All — All annotations are deleted. Select this option to start GD&T Advisor with a ‘clean’ model.

• Validate All — The application attempts to validate the unvalidated annotations to GD&T Advisor annotations by automatically creating functional features based on the surface references of the annotations. If there is a problem validating an annotation, it is listed in the Unvalidated Annotations List, along with the reason for the failure. Note that this function requires the GDT_ENTERPRISE_SET license option. If that license option is not available, this button is replaced by Ignore All.
