Redaction Annotation Object

Note:

This topic is for Document/Medical only.

The redaction annotation object (ANNOBJECT_REDACT) is a rectangle with default properties that are appropriate for blacking out an area. With the automated functions, the user clicks and drags to specify the rectangle in the current window.

With low-level functions, you must specify the defining rectangle. Other applicable properties have the following defaults, which you can change:

Visible	Defaults to FALSE. It can be changed using the AnnSetVisible method.
Selected	Defaults to FALSE. It can be changed using the AnnSetSelected method.
Name	Defaults to an empty string. It can be changed using the AnnSetNameOptions method.
Background color	Defaults to Black. It can be changed using the AnnSetBackColor method.
Hyperlink	Defaults to None. It can be changed using the AnnSetHyperlinkString method.
Tag (identifier)	Defaults to 0. It can be changed using the AnnSetTag method.
Window handle	Defaults to NULL or the handle inherited from the container. It can be changed for all objects using the AnnSetWnd method.
User mode	Defaults to design mode or the mode inherited from the container. It can be changed for all objects using the AnnUserMode property.
