Annotation label with Subcategory

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I have a project were I place different types of components all together, families with Annotation Label Text (lets call them Component A, Component B and Component C)

Then within different sheets I need to show all of the components but not all of the Text (in Sheet "Components A" I need to show all of the components but just the Label text of the Components A)

Normally I would just turn on/off the visibility of the subcategories in Sheet properties, but it is not possible to add subcategories to Label Text. And if I use visibility parameters to the text, when I turn on/off each of them, I does it but to all the Sheets at the same time.

Thank you.

So, no answers after two months.

for component A, B and C as  3D families, make a shared Generic Model family with the required text, and nest this family into component A, B or C. For different visibility requirements, make different Family and/or Types.

In the project you can make a filter [ Generic Model, Family and Type ]  to turn the text off.

@FAIR59's solution works, but it's rather clunky.  I'd much rather be able to assign the label a subcategory in the generic annotation.  I can do that lines, so it seems an oversight to not be able to do that with labels.

Yes,  I'm having this problem

Thinking that it might be possible to make the annotations a group and control the group with a filter,  I'll try this and report back

[StuartCaughlin4S7FJ]

No silly idea,  only model category items can be controlled

I am an idiot,  control it with a filter per category then family name - doh!
