      <p class="para_topic"> This option imports markup files created with an application called UGRemarX. Markup files can contain graphics and text notes that relate to an NX part file.</p>
      <p class="para_topic"> A typical use of Markup is for part file review. For example, an engineer completes a part and asks a coworker to review it online. The coworker opens the part in UGRemarX and reviews it, adding text notes and graphics where needed. When finished, the coworker saves the review comments (called markups) to a UGRemarX markup file. Later, the part file author opens the original part and uses the Markup option to import the markup file containing the coworker's graphics and text comments. Markup text and graphics are displayed in the part in the same positions in which the reviewers wrote them.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Requirements</div>
      <p class="para_division"> There are two requirements for using the Markup option:</p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> The markup file you import must have been previously generated (using UGRemarX) from the same NX part file to which you are importing it.</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Markup files can only be imported into 2D drawings in the Drafting application.</p>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <div class="title_division">Importing a Markup File</div>
      <p class="para_division"> To import a markup file created by UGRemarX:</p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Open the original part file from which the markup was created. The system then prompts for the following information:</p>
            <ul>
               <li>
                  <p class="para_item"> The directory where the markup file can be found (markup files have a .mkp file extension).</p>
               </li>
               <li>
                  <p class="para_item"> The drawing to which you want to add the markup information. You can select from a list of drawings.</p>
               </li>
               <li>
                  <p class="para_item"> The layer to which you want to add the markup information.</p>
               </li>
               <li>
                  <p class="para_item"> The color in which you want the markup information to appear, which is useful in differentiating markup data from part file objects. Enter a number 1 through 16 that corresponds with the color you want, as specified in the color table (for information on color tables, see Color Palette).</p>
               </li>
            </ul>
            <p class="para_item"> The system then loads the markup data into the part file. The Information window displays showing detailed information about the markup, including the number of notes in the markup.</p>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <p class="para_division"> To see the markup data:</p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Select View&rarr;Edit&rarr;Fit or Quick View Pop-Up&rarr;Fit. This displays the markup data on the drawing in the color you specified. UGRemarX graphical objects and labels appear as originally entered. Text notes, however, show as small icons in the shape of documents.</p>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <div class="title_division"> Reading a UGRemarX Note</div>
      <p class="para_division"> To read an iconized note from a markup file you have already imported, run a Open C and C++ API routine named &quot;readnote&quot;:</p>
      <ol type="1" start="1">
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Select the File&rarr;Execute Open&rarr;User Function option.</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Select the readnote routine. (If you do not see the readnote routine, see your System Administrator.) This displays the  <a class="links" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="top.openFile('shared_func/com_selct_tl_d.html');return(false);">Class Selection dialog</a>.
            </p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Using the cursor, select a note icon from the graphics area, or Enter the name of the note.</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item"> Click OK on the Class Selection dialog. This displays the Information window containing the contents of the note. Selecting a second note overwrites the contents of the first in the Information window.</p>
         </li>
      </ol>
   </body>
