Using the Capture Management

You can use the Capture Management to manage captures.

This tool allows you to:


  • Associate one or several annotations or annotation planes with one or several captures.
  • Disassociate one or several annotations from one or several captures.

Annotations may be managed from existing captures in the document or its parent documents.

Before you begin: Open an existing 3D shape containing captures.
