Attaching and Detaching Notes to Other Notes

You can attach notes to other notes using the Attach Notes option in the RMB menu. The first note selected is the parent note (highlighted in blue) and any other notes you select become child notes (highlighted in dark blue).

  1. Select two or more notes
  2. RMB click
  3. Select Attach Notes
  4. To detach a note RMB select it and choose the Detach option.

When notes are attached, moving the parent note moves all the notes as one. However, moving a child note will move that note individually.

You can attach a note to the note fields of objects created with tools in the Detail tab. For example, Surface Finish symbols, Welding symbols, Datum Targets, Datum symbols, notes within a Symbol, and Dimensions are some tools that have note fields. Any notes can be attached to any other notes. Dimensions, however, can only be parent notes since they are attached to the model.
