In theory, once the Work Features are brought into the drawing (using the "Include WorkFeatures" function) there should be no reason why you can't use a WorkPoint to drive a location for a balloon.

What the above function does however is create a "CenterMark" object which has 5 point2d objects including its position:

In fact, unless I'm mistaken this is the only way of working with (and including) WorkFeature geometry in a drawing view.

 

So your solution needs to rely upon the user manually pulling the work features into the part using the built-in (manual) tools, or have the user select the relevant model.ipt browsernode and automatically run the "Include Work Features" command- something I just attempted to look up using the Event Viewer application without success!

 

Neither of which are particularly slick solutions. :disappointed_face:

 

I don't have a code example showing how to pull WorkFeatures into a drawing view (using the API) otherwise I would share it.
