Adding an Annotation to a Lab¶
Open the lab that you want to edit in the Workbench by clicking on its tile on the Dashboard page.
Follow this procedure to create rectangle, ellipse, and line annotations. For text annotations, see Creating a Text Annotation. You can also create an annotation by cloning an existing annotation.
Procedure
Select the desired annotation tool by clicking the corresponding button in the Workbench toolbar.
The toolbar button for the active tool is highlighted in the toolbar.
On the Workbench canvas, click and hold down the mouse button where you want the annotation to start.
Continue to hold down the mouse button and drag the mouse to create an annotation of the desired size and shape.
Release the mouse button to create the annotation.
The annotation is added to the lab and is selected in the canvas. The Workbench’s side panel shows the annotation’s properties, which you can change to customize the appearance of the annotation.
The annotation is now part of the lab. To modify your new annotation’s appearance, see Editing an Annotation.
