Working with Annotations
An annotation is a highlighted portion of the document text. It may be associated with an issue; a note (a
comment associated with an annotation); or an attachment, e.g., a document or image.
Adding an Issue Annotation Using the Main Menu Toolbar
To add an annotation associated with an issue using the Main Menu toolbar, complete these steps:
1. Make certain the Apply Issue Mode button ( ) is displayed on the toolbar above the document in the
right pane. To display the Apply Issue Mode button, click the Annotate Mode button ( ) on the toolbar
above the document and choose Apply Issue Mode from the menu. Note: The Annotate Mode button is the
default button.
2. Click an issue button on the Main Menu toolbar to select the issue and assign it to the annotation you are
adding.
3. Select the text you want to annotate. The text is highlighted with the color of the issue you selected. The issue
will be assigned to every annotation you create until you cancel its selection on the Main Menu toolbar.
Note: You can select more than one issue on the Main Menu toolbar. Annotated text will be highlighted
with the color of the last issue that you selected.
Adding an Annotation Using the Annotation Properties Dialog Box
You can use the Annotation Properties dialog box to add an annotation associated with a note, issue,
key fact, attachment, or a combination of these. To view the Annotation Properties dialog box, make
certain the Annotate Mode button (
) is displayed on the toolbar above the document in the right
pane. Then select the text in document you want to annotate. The Annotation Properties dialog box is
displayed.
