AnnNoteObject Object

Summary

Defines an annotation note object.

Syntax

TypeScript

JavaScript

function lt.Annotations.Engine.AnnNoteObject 
	extends lt.Annotations.Engine.AnnTextObject 
	implements IAnnObjectCloneable

class lt.Annotations.Engine.AnnNoteObject() 
	extends AnnTextObject 
	implements IAnnObjectCloneable

Remarks

The AnnNoteObject is a rectangle with a shadow border and brush background (yellow by default). It contains a text string with font properties. The text will wrap on word breaks within the object's specified rectangle.

With the automated functions, the user clicks or taps and drags to specify the rectangle in the current window. A dialog box then lets the user enter the text.

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

Each object can be transformed with the following methods:

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

The AnnNoteObject inherits a number of text properties from the AnnTextObject class that provide support for text alignment, margins, etc. These properties are listed below:

The name of the note object can be controlled using 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 AnnNoteObject:

Example

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