Markups (Creo View Annotations, Markups, and Groups) can optionally be configured to copy forward when their parent Representation is copied forward or a new Representation of the same name is created on a new iteration of the Representable. The decision to copy markups forward is based on the allowCopyForward flag, which is set on each individual markup object and manually changed using the Annotations and markups list. By default, the value of this flag is false, but if it is set to true, markups associated directly to a Windchill Document (with no representation for natively viewed content) will be copied forward to the new iteration.
