AnnSerializeOptions Class

Summary

Options to use when saving annotation objects.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public class AnnSerializeOptions

@interface LTAnnSerializeOptions : NSObject

public class AnnSerializeOptions

public: 
   ref class AnnSerializeOptions

class AnnSerializeOptions:

Remarks

This class is used as the type for AnnCodecs.SerializeOptions and contains the following members:

Member	Description
SerializeObject	Event to trigger for each annotation object being saved. Allows you to monitor and skip any object.
SaveLockPassword	Controls whether AnnObject.Password of locked annotation objects is saved in the annotation file.

Example

This example will create a container, adds a line and rectangle objects to it. Then skip the line object during save.
