Measurement: Annotation is fixed and not moved with the referenced object

[maxwxyz]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Problem description

When a measurement (#9750) is saved as annotation the location of the displayed position in the 3D view is fixed and won't update if the referenced object / geometry is moved.
The issue also persists if the underlying geometry is modified, e.g. change the side length of the cube or the depth of a pad: the dimension value is updated, but not the position of the dimension (Elements not rendered correctly if source object changes).

The expected behavior would be, that the measurement needs an update/recompute and will be displayed at the new location of the reference points.

Maybe this is an issue, as the annotation label has no attachment support:

• Annotation Label position has no attachment support #13717

This seems to be a missing recompute. For me it updates if i trigger it manually. That being said it seems to work in simple cases e.g. a measurement on a part Box.

The problem seems to be that we only get signals of our subject but not from it's container (e.g. PD Body). @WandererFan maybe you have an idea how we could solve this?
