The Note annotation object is a rectangle with a shadow border and color background (yellow by default). It contains a character string with font properties. The text will wrap on word breaks within the object's specified rectangle. In design mode, click and drag to specify the rectangle in the current window. Holding down the Shift key while drawing the note will make the note annotation square. A dialog box then lets the user enter the text.
As soon as the Note object is created, the text will be highlighted. The text may be edited immediately. While in design mode double-click on a note object to edit the text. This can be achieved programmatically by calling the LAnnotation::TextEdit function.
In design mode, click on the object with the right mouse button to do the following:
Undo the last user action.
Cut or copy the object to the clipboard.
Delete the object.
Select all objects.
Bring the object to the front or send it to the back.
Lock and unlock annotation objects. See Password Dialog Box for Annotations.
Change the Name properties. See Name Dialog Box for Annotations.
Change the foreground and background colors. See Color Dialog Box for Annotations.
Change the font selection and font characteristics. See Font Dialog Box for Annotations.
Edit the text. See Text Dialog Box for Annotations.
Change the fixed properties. See Fixed Dialog Box for Annotations.
Set and manage hyperlink properties for an object or group of objects. Note: The actual management of a hyperlink must be done through low-level implementation. Only the Menu Item "Hyperlink" and an associated event are provided through the automation object. For more information, refer to Implementing Annotation Hyperlinks.
For information on flipping, reversing or rotating annotation objects, refer to Flipping, Reversing and Rotating Annotation Objects.
For low-level implementation details, refer to Note Annotation Object.
