i have created a profile model and sheet but if i change one of vertical curve length, vertical geometry and annotations are updated but profile frame annotations stays as not changed. this issue really let me down.
regards,
Evren
I am fairly certain that model annotation like framed annotation will not update when the linear element is updated. Element annotation, like profile annotation (PVC, PVT, etc.) does update when the source geometry is changed. Hopefully dynamic model annotation will make it's way in to the product soon.

I believe you can remove and then add model annotation to refresh any Frame Annotations. I could be wrong, but its worth testing. Not dynamic, but still better than recutting everything.
However, I agree that dynamic updates are critically needed. Often, when an alignment changes, the elevation ranges become obsolete and dynamic updating could address this.
I also think we should be able to click on a frame and its properties should be editable and dynamically refresh. Things like vertical exaggeration and clearance ranges should be able to be modified without having to completely redo sheets.

Agree, however, annotation performance will need some work first though.

Dear Charles,
i have two drawing models as normal (profile drawing and profile model). I understand you propose me to "remove model annotation". this function does not work with me. I dont know what is wrong.
I did a quick text, in my profile drawings. I can remove model annotation and add it back in. It left me with a bare profile after removal but the frame and the profile were annotated once I told it to annotate the model and selected the profile annotation group..
Folks:
For myself, I like the idea of "dynamic updates", but still I would like a bit of control over what gets updated. In the early design process, such would be great, but as the job gets closer to completion there are times when we have had to move information around a bit in order for the drawings to be legible. There is a "balance" of sorts within this idea that only rigorous testing- real world testing- would be able to address, I think.
