Remarks

The hilite annotation object is a simple rectangle that has a bounding rectangle, no pen and no brush. Although it does not have a pen or brush, it does have a color value that is used to fill this bounding area. By default the hilite object's fill color is yellow.

With the automated functions, the user clicks / taps and drags to specify the rectangle in the current window.

Programmatically, the boundaries and location of the hilite object can be controlled using the following properties:

Each object can be transformed with the following methods:

The AnnHiliteObject class inherits a number of properties from the AnnObject class, providing support for font, stroke and fill characteristics. These properties are listed below:

The name of the hilite object can be controlled using AnnObject.Labels property, inherited from the AnnObject class.

An object can be part of a group annotation object or part of a container object. It cannot be part of both a group and a container at the same time.

The following properties can also be used to programmatically set characteristics of an AnnHiliteObject:

Example

This example creates a hilite object and adds it to the automation container.

using Leadtools.Annotations.Automation; 
using Leadtools.Annotations.Engine; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.Annotations; 
using Leadtools.Annotations.WinForms; 
 
public void AnnCore_AnnHiliteObject() 
{ 
   // assumes _automation is valid 
   double inch = 720.0; 
   // Add a hilite object 
   AnnHiliteObject hiliteObj = new AnnHiliteObject(); 
   // Set the points for the hilite 
   hiliteObj.Points.Add(LeadPointD.Create(1 * inch, 1 * inch)); 
   hiliteObj.Points.Add(LeadPointD.Create(2 * inch, 1 * inch)); 
   hiliteObj.Points.Add(LeadPointD.Create(2 * inch, 2 * inch)); 
   hiliteObj.Points.Add(LeadPointD.Create(1 * inch, 2 * inch)); 
   // Add the object to the automation container 
   _automation.Container.Children.Add(hiliteObj); 
}
