Hello

Sorry, I do not have a straight answer but instead a question 😮

If you manage to automate the Set Default annotated view you take the risk that the life cycle state can be wrong.

If the view was created before a change state this will be the case. Your annotated view is not automatically republish and if so, are the annotation kept ?

I would test this before making the change.

I see a potential risk there.

Best regards

Hi Chris. That's a good shout. The annotated drawings remains at "Under Review" whereas the rejected viewable reads "In Work". I'll manage it with appropriate user guidance. Thanks!
