Summary


Details

When using Convert to PMI on previously converted annotations, the following alert will display unless "Don't display this message again" has been selected.
============================================
One or more of the selected annotation has previously been converted.  
Select Skip to proceed with converting previously converted annotation.
Select Delete to delete previously converted objects.
============================================



Solution

In order for the previously converted PMI annotations to update/reflect any new changes, the 'Delete' option must be clicked in the Convert to PMI pop-up window after selecting the OK or Apply button.  Selecting 'Skip' will not update the converted PMI in Modeling.  The 'Skip' option can be used to prevent annotation changes from being reflected in Modeling if this is desired.  If "Don't display this message again" has been selected, NX will automatically use the 'Delete' option. 

If this pop-up has been disabled:
  1. Select 'File-->Preferences-->User Interface'.
  2. Highlight 'Options' in the left column, and select the arrow icon to the right of:
    Reset "Don't display this message again"
  3. OK the User Interface Preferences dialog.
