Flat Pattern Annotation won't move

Flat Pattern Annotation won't move

Flat Pattern Annotation won't move

(OP)
We auto generate the bend information annotation on the flat pattern. On some drawings, the flat patterns that is generated won't let us re-position the leader. as shown in the pictures, it is pointing to the center of the bend line right at the center line. we want to move the annotation along the bend line but can't move it. When we try to edit it, the leader section is grayed out. If we delete the leader and make a new one, it causes the flat pattern to fail it update. Does someone know how to get the leader anchor point to move?

RE: Flat Pattern Annotation won't move

This is a limitation with the current versions of NX. Note that there are plans to address this and other Flat-Pattern annotation issues in a future release of NX.

I was afraid that was the case with this. Any idea, approx, of what release that might be addressed in?

Can't say for sure.
