[ORD U7] Can non-template strings\surfaces by automatically annotated in ORD?

Question

Hi All, 
 When creating X-sections through ORD, any points created from a template within the x-section area are annotated according to the rules in the annotation group. However, I have found that if I have any non-template (but still featurized) strings\surfaces within the X-section area they can not be automatically annotated. 
 Is this working as designed? Are we expected to annotate all non-template points manually? This is not ideal through areas that reqiure a lot of manual string modelling such as intersections. 
 Thanks 
 Liam

Hi Liam, 
 
 It works for us if we make sure not to include the on_top for that feature (as it is not a corridor top mesh feature)

 As a test, I have amended my cross section annotation group to automatically annotate feature definition 'Linear\Miscellaneous\MatchLine' - I created a line that basically sits above the corridor which gets annotated with an arrow and offset/elevation values as shown below. [The white dashed line is the 'matchline' feature.] 
 What annotation are you looking to add?
