Business value

Annotations are fundamental in Dynamics 365 Remote Assist because they enable technicians and remote collaborators to easily specify an area or particular asset to look at or manipulate, rather than verbally trying to convey a thought. By improving the annotation placing model, users can more intuitively use mixed-reality annotations and place annotations where they intend to more easily and accurately.

Feature details

This feature includes the following capabilities for 2020 release wave 2:

  • New arrow annotation design.
  • Ability to rotate the arrow annotation.
  • Easier annotation placement in your environment.
