4.3.3.3 Attributes
Attributes are used to capture additional information that is not shown using geometry or in the
model annotation. Attributes shall be available on demand. Attributes may be presented using
text description, forms or other techniques. Applications of attributes include, but are not
limited to hardening, coating, knurling, screw threads and centre holes.
4.3.3.4 Annotation planes
The orientation of the annotation plane shall be maintained relative to model geometry as the
model is manipulated in 3-D. For example, as the geometry is rotated, the text rotates corre-
spondingly. See figure 12. When a CAD system does not support maintenance of annotation
plane orientation relative to the model, annotation planes shall not be used.
