Organizing Annotations into Combined States

Organize annotations into appropriate combined states as they are created.

States 1 though 4 utilize mostly flat to screen notes, because they convey much of the 2-D data contained within a 2-D drawing. These should be fairly complete based on the start part.

In combined state #5, the geometric datum feature symbols used for geometric tolerancing are collected. They can be created while annotating the combined state #7 series features and then copied to this combined state.

In the combined states #7 series, most of the model annotations are created as driven dimensions from selected geometry or displayed as driving dimensions from underlying model features. A variety of annotation types and orientations are used in these views depending on company standards and requirements.
