What is the benefit of this enhancement?
You can now select multiple annotations in the Model Tree, Detail Tree, or the Graphics Window, and designate all of them to Windchill with a new option called Designation on the shortcut menu.
Two levels of designation are available: General designation or designation as control characteristics
In addition, there is a new configuration option default_annotation_designation, to define the default designation status of newly created annotations in the model. The valid values are: none*, designate, control_characteristics.
