Hi All,

I have been asked to investigate using 3d PDFs to provide to suppliers to manufacture a composite assembly. Whereby they can toggle through each child component in 3d space to see how all the parts get assembled together, it looks really powerful.

I've managed to get all the parts logically filtered through the technical data package, however on publishing the TDP it doesn't take that child parts PMI with it. I have found how to export it all in 1 go by using a PMI data filter, however this then removes the link between a PMI note and the child part it was referencing. Does anyone have a solution to this. Happy to provide more context if required.

Thanks!
