I'm having an issue with an existing drawing I'm trying to modify. I'm just trying to add a note on my drawing, but when I click to locate the note, it isn't displayed where I clicked, it jumps to a location far off in space. I'm hoping there's a quick fix to this. I attached an example, please take a look.

In order to find where the note was located, I have to zoom out a LOT.
If anyone has some suggestions, That would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I found a fix, the notes that were in the top right were a duplicate of notes in the drawing at the bottom left.
I copied the text to a word program, deleted the note, added a new note to the drawing and the issue went away. I was able to add other notes as well without any issue.
 
You could also have an issue with your graphics driver.
 
I think i have seen and reported this problem myself.
In my case it turned out that the specific note which i had copied to multiple places was "a bit old", (pre-NX). The solution was , i think, Part clean up.

Have a look at Information- part - part history to see how old the part is, if it's been around before NX, i.e Unigraphics, then the note might have that heritage.

Regards, Tomas
