Comments

Some of these features change the way annotations look. Other features change the behavior of the user interface (automated mode). To maintain backward compatibility, new features are disabled by default. To enable these features, call L_AnnSetOptions with the desired flags. To get the current options, call L_AnnGetOptions. For a description of the changes, refer to Annotation Features.
