Annotation Text   

An Annotation Text object, also called an annotation text layer, is designed to display and store multiple texts (such as labels of points, segments or polygons) at multiple positions.

• In a map window, open the File menu and choose Create Annotation Text. The Create Annotation Text dialog box will appear, in which you can choose to use a map on which the texts/labels should be based.
• Then, in the Annotation Text editor, you can easily reposition selected texts, and you can specify fonts, font sizes, appearance (bold, italics, underline), colors, rotations, etc. Texts in an Annotation Text object can only consist of one line.

Tip:

When one or more maps, annotation text layers, optional grid lines and graticules that are displayed in a map window are saved as a map view, and when the map view is added to a layout, you can add further texts (such as a title) to the layout.
