Remove Orphaned dimensions and notes

Remove Orphaned dimensions and notes

Remove Orphaned dimensions and notes

(OP)
Is there a way to remove all orphaned dimensions and note from a set of drawings? If I take a master assembly and remove parts from it I'd like the dimensions and notes removed without manually searching thru multiple drawings.

RE: Remove Orphaned dimensions and notes

What version of NX?

In NX 9, you can delete all the annotations that have lost associativity on the sheet by going to preferences -> drafting -> general/setup -> retain annotations and pressing the delete retained annotations button.

We are currently using NX 8.5.

RE: Remove Orphaned dimensions and notes

In that case, you can find it at: preferences -> drafting -> annotation.
