Note: |
This topic is for Document/Medical only. |
The rectangle annotation object (ANN_OBJECT_RECT) is a simple rectangle. With the automated functions, the user clicks and drags to specify the rectangle in the current window.
For information on flipping, reversing or rotating annotation objects, refer to Flipping, Reversing and Rotating Annotation Objects.
With low-level functions, you must define the size and position of the rectangle. Other applicable properties have the following defaults, which you can change:
