Illustration of Fill Options for Annotations

Note:

This topic is for Document/Medical only.

LEADTOOLS includes an alpha option that allows you to specify an alpha value from 0 (completely transparent background) to 255 (completely opaque background) inclusive.

When enabled using the L_AnnSetOptions function, you can right-click an annotation object to display the Fill dialog with the new alpha option. Here you can enter an alpha value from 0 – 255 inclusive. This figure displays the Fill dialog for the Stamp object.

The following figure displays rectangle annotation objects using different alpha values:
