When the model is published to the PTC Creo View file format and opened in PTC Creo View, any notes designated with the security marking are permanently visible.
A note that has been added to an annotation feature cannot be designated with a security marking. Once the note is removed from any annotation features, the security marking option becomes available.
Best Practices
A company’s proprietary information should be designated with the security marking. This makes it permanently visible in every combination state and in PTC Creo View.
