Why annotations on your drawing can't be seen?

Some users have told us about a problem: they make annotations on a drawing and share it, but their friends cannot see the annotations.

Why This Happens

Annotations you make in DWG FastView are saved only on your device. When you share the drawing, the annotations do not go with it. So, your friend only sees the original drawing without your notes.

 How to Fix It

To make sure your annotations are seen, follow these steps:

1. Finish Your Annotations**: Make all the annotations you need on your drawing and save the drawing.

2. Upload the Drawing: After making annotations, you must upload the drawing to cloud storage or a file-sharing platform. In DWG FastView, do this by:
- Long-pressing on the annotated drawing.
- Selecting the option to upload the file to cloud storage.

3. Share the Uploaded Drawing: Once the drawing is uploaded, share it from the cloud storage. Do this by:
- Long-pressing on the uploaded drawing.
- Selecting the option to share the file.

Following these steps will ensure your annotations are included with the drawing, so your friend can see them too.

Annotations are important for working together on drawings. By uploading your annotated drawing to cloud storage and sharing it from there, your annotations will not be lost. This will help you share your work better with DWG FastView.
