UDF Annotation and MBD

JBB76 — Wed, 14 Aug 2024 16:06:09 GMT

I've been tasked to determine if it is possible to annotate (modify) our present UDFs to include annotations that will show up in an MBD model.

Currently we can place the UDF, a counterbore hole, for example, on the model . However, then we must dimension the UDF manually in the combination state. Is there a way to attach the callout to a UDF so it becomes integral with the combination state?

I suppose this would be applicable to a non-MBD part also. Can the callout be attached to the UDF when the UDF is placed on a part?

Our UDFs are all Stand Alone also and we use Creo 9.3.

Thanks for any guidance!

Hi @JBB76

You can include annotations as part of your UDF definition and have them to show up when you instantiate the UDF to a another part.

In order to do so you need to make sure that the annotations in the UDF are created as Annotation feature owned annotations.
