iLogic to retrieve model annotations

[clutsa]

This is kind of a two part question and there is a lot of code so I'm hoping to abbreviate as much as possible. I have iLogic code that retrieves two dimensions from my model on a view named "FRONT". 

Dim FrontName = "FRONT"
Dim FrontView As DrawingView = ActiveSheet.View(FrontName).View
Dim myDimColl As ObjectCollection = tObj.CreateObjectCollection
Dim BasePinHoleAssy As ComponentOccurrence
Dim BasePinHoleCompOcc As ComponentOccurrence
Dim BasePinHoleCompOccProxy As ComponentOccurrenceProxy
...
'Code that sets other variables not listed
...
BasePinHoleAssy = docM.ComponentDefinition.Occurrences.ItemByName(BaseEndfittingAssyStandard)
BasePinHoleCompOcc = BasePinHoleAssy.Definition.Occurrences.ItemByName(BaseEndfittingCompStandard)
Call BasePinHoleAssy.CreateGeometryProxy(BasePinHoleCompOcc,BasePinHoleCompOccProxy)
...
'Other proxy object code
Dim ProxyList As New ArrayList
'Code to populate ProxyList 
...
For Each ProxyObj In ProxyList
Dim RetrievableDims As ObjectCollection = ActiveSheet.Sheet.DrawingDimensions.GeneralDimensions.GetRetrievableDimensions(FrontView, ProxyObj)
...
'Code that gets the dimensions I want from RetrievableDims 
...
Logger.Debug("myDimColl.Count = {0}",{myDimColl.Count})
	If myDimColl.Count > 0 Then ActiveSheet.Sheet.DrawingDimensions.GeneralDimensions.Retrieve(FrontView, myDimColl)

Part 1: The logger outputs that the myDimColl has a count of 2 and two new dimensions appear on the drawing as anticipated. The main problem is I also get a General Note (that is associated with a skeletal part used in the top model) that appears in the top left corner of the drawing that I didn't ask for. If I change the code to only include one dimension or the other I still get the unwanted note so it's not part of either note and if I pass an empty collection I get an error so the note isn't being added to the collection. I can make more code to loop through and delete the note after the dimensions are added but I feel as though I shouldn't have to... Is this just a bug? 

Part 2: I couldn't get "GetRetrievableDimensions" to work with an actual "ComponentOccurrence" hence the "ComponentOccurrenceProxy" making, but the description for the optional model object says it works with CompOcc. Is that also a bug?

I know the code I gave is non-functioning as written and that makes it hard to debug but I'm not looking for tips for workarounds, I have working code. I just want to know if I'm fundamentally doing something wrong or fighting issues that shouldn't be issues.
