Questions: Attach notes to drawing views & changing info BOM tables...

Questions: Attach notes to drawing views & changing info BOM tables...

(OP)
I'm coming from a solidworks background so I'm (painfully) learning Pro/E (WF4) and have a few questions...

1) Is there any way to attach a note to a drawing view? In SW you double click on the view to highlight it then add a note and whenever you move the view the note stays in place relative to it. Is this possible in Pro?

2) We have a BOM generator script made that works well, but is there any way to override the text in a specific cell? In SW you can break the link (and restore it if you need to) by just double-clicking on the cell. Pro seems to fight me all the way!

Thanks in advance!
Brad

P.S. Why does the un-do button never work?!?

1) Select the note, goto Edit -> Group -> Relate to View
