Function ProAnnotationByComponentShow
Description
Show model annotations of given type for selected component. Note: If an annotation is dependent on another annotation for its display in a drawing, then the application must first show the parent annotation on the drawing, followed by showing the dependent annotation. For instance, if a gtol is placed on a dimension, then first call ProAnnotationByViewShow for PRO_DIMENSION type and then call ProAnnotationByViewShow for PRO_GTOL. If the application does not show the dimension before the specified gtol, then the gtol will not be displayed on the drawing.
