2.8 ANNOTATING<br />

The Annotation tool (shortcut A) allows you to add simple<br />

notes and correction marks to your drawings. Once you<br />

activate the tool, the grey info box (View > Show Info) will turn<br />

into a little palette holding a range of annotation tools.<br />

2.8.1 Annotation Cursor<br />

The first tool on the Annotation palette is a simple edit tool<br />

for annotation marks. It allows you to activate, move, and<br />

resize existing annotations. Once an annotation mark is<br />

activated, you can delete it by pressing the Delete key.<br />

2.8.2 Annotation Text<br />

The second tool from the left is a simple text tool. Activate<br />

it by clicking on the T button and then click anywhere on<br />

the canvas to add a text box. Double click on the text and<br />

start typing. When you’re finished, just activate the next tool<br />

you want to work with. You do not need to acknowledge the<br />

text entry.<br />

Is there a kink in the curve?<br />
