I am working on drawing extraction since 6 month , I discovered that when you setup any rule then any modification on the model property the result will be disaster like ( the annotation will get back to its original place, disappear some times , duplicates ) any suggestion
Drawing extraction and architectural rules??? Do you mean dynamic views and rules for labels such as doors, windows, and spaces? If so, our experience with dynamic views and automatic annotations for doors and windows were the same as yours. I'm pretty sure the labels will cooperate just fine as long as one users is opening the related drawing views and sheets. The minute another user opens a drawing or sheet with Enable Auto Annotations activated, the labels begin their mysterious behavior. I'm sure there's a logic, but it's not very logical. :) I never got a chance to implement it, but I think we should have set BB_AUTOANNOTATION = Manual at the site level so the annotations required a manual update each and every time... except the first time a drawing was opened.
