    Manually placed DataGroup annotation is different than Drawing Rule based annotation

      Product(s): OpenBuildings Designer and AECOsim Building Designer
      Version(s): CONNECT Edition
      Environment: N/A
      Area: Annotation
      Subarea: Drawing Rules

    Problem

    When I use the Element Annotation tool to manually annotate a Profile component it doesn't display the correct annotation cell, but when using drawing rule based annotation in the same drawing the results are correct.  How is this possible?

    Solution

    The cell selected for Profiles in the Annotate Tool Settings dialog was set incorrectly resulting in unexpected graphics when manually annotating Profiles within the drawing.

    The Architectural Drawing Rule being used for Profiles, however, had the desired cell explicitly selected instead of using the Default Annotation Assignment cell which is why the Auto-Annotation results were correct.
