To Select an Annotation Element
To select an Annotation Element, you can:
Select the Annotation Element in the Model Tree.
Select Annotation from the filter list on the Status Bar and select the appropriate annotation on the screen. When you select an annotation on the screen, and the annotation is part of an Annotation Element, the Annotation Element, and not the annotation itself, is selected. All the annotation operations, except Delete, can be performed through the Annotation Element.
When you select an Annotation Element, the following occurs:
The Annotation Element that contains the annotation is highlighted in the Model Tree.
The annotation is highlighted in primary color in the graphics area.
All the references of the Annotation Element that contains the selected annotation are highlighted in secondary color in the graphics area.
If you right-click on the selected Annotation Element, the Select References command is available in the shortcut menu. Using this command lets you select all the references of the Annotation Element.
