I using the drawing mode to convert some annotations made with the Function, Tolerancing and Annotations applications into a drawing. The plane is converting clearly and the annotations displayed are correct, but some of the annotations have a big read X accross them. I can delete the X but I do not know why CATIA has put it there. Does anyone know what it means? I am using CATIA V5 R15.

Thanks.
 
A Red X on a generated symbol in a "View From 3D" means it is related to some geometry which is not visible in the view.
This is the case when the symbol is related to a wireframe element that is in No Show. Showing red-crosses is the standard way for the FT&A application to show information that might not be relevant in one particular view.
