Display annotations
Defines the options for annotations to be displayed in specification tree :
  • Under Geometric Feature nodes: Defines that 3D annotations should be displayed under the geometric feature nodes in the specification tree. This lets you view 3D annotations under the Part Design or Generative Shape Design feature nodes to which they are applied.
By default, this option is not selected.
  • Under View/Annotation Plane nodes: Defines that 3D annotations should be displayed under the view/annotation plane nodes in the specification tree. This lets you view 3D annotations under the view node to which they are linked.

By default, this option is selected.

Analysis Display Mode

Select this option to display True dimensions and 3D annotations using different colors according to their types and status (true dimensions, invalid annotations, etc.).

By default, this option is selected.

Additionally click Types and colors... to customize the colors that will be used. The Types and colors dialog box lets you assign the desired colors to the selected types (true dimensions, dimensions and annotations on deleted geometry, dimensions and annotations on unloaded geometry, invalid dimensions and annotations). You will then be able to visualize the different types using their assigned colors.
By default, all options are selected and default colors are assigned.

Annotation Parameters
Defines the annotation parameter options:

Display parameters under annotation feature node
Defines that knowledge parameters (such as tolerance values, datum label, etc.) of annotations should be displayed under the annotation feature node in the specification tree; also defines that feature parameters of dimensions (accessible through the Edit Generative Parameter command) should be displayed under the dimension feature node in the specification tree.
Note that in order to have the value of the parameters displayed in the specification tree, you need to select the With value knowledge setting in Tools > Options > General > Parameters and Measure > Knowledge tab.
By default, this option is not selected.

Surface Normal

Display for shifted profile tolerance
Defines whether the normal of all the selected surfaces are displayed, or not, when a shifted profile tolerance is specified or queried.
By default, this option is not selected.

3D Annotation Query
Defines the 3D annotation query options.

Allow query for default annotation (automatic selection mode)
Defines whether the highlight for geometric element involved in default annotation is allowed with 3D Annotation Query Switch On/Switch Off option On: .
By default, this option is selected.

Hatching, coloring or dotting for clipping plane

Display
Defines whether the clipping plane is displayed with hatching, coloring or dotting, or not.
Note that the same option is available in DMU Tolerancing Review. Modifying this option in DMU Tolerancing Review will modify its status in Functional Tolerancing & Annotation, and vice-versa.
By default, this option is not selected.

Capture display
Defines whether the annotations are automatically mirrored when displaying a capture. The annotations are displayed in an easier readable way.
By default, this option is selected.

Annotations in Assembly Context

Do not load annotations with missing related geometric elements
Defines whether to load annotations with missing related geometric elements.
At least one related geometric element is missing
Does not load the annotations if at least one related geometric element is missing. This option is available only when Do not load annotations with missing related geometric elements check box is selected.
By default, this option is selected.
All related geometric elements are missing
Does not load the annotations if all related geometric elements are missing. This option is available only when Do not load annotations with missing related geometric elements check box is selected.
By default, this option is not selected.
