Edit an Annotation

Use this procedure to edit an annotation.

To edit an annotation:

1. In the Project Views folder of Open Plan Explorer, select the project containing the annotation you want to edit, and display it in network view.
2. Right-click the annotation, and click Edit from the context menu.
3. In the Network View Annotation dialog box, enter the text you want to display as an annotation.
4. To attach an annotation to a specific activity rather than to the view, enter the activity ID in the Attach to Activity ID field.
   The annotation will then stay with the activity whenever the activity is moved on the view. Each activity can have only one annotation. Attaching an annotation to an activity that already has one detaches (but does not delete) the old annotation.
5. From the Style drop-down list, select a border style for the annotation.
6. From the Text Color drop-down list, select a color for the annotation  text.
7. From the Background Color drop-down list, select a background color for the annotation.
8. To change the appearance of the annotation text, click the Font button, and select a font and its attributes.
   The Font button will be enabled when you deselect the Use Default Font option. Deselecting this option opens the Font dialog box.
9. Select the Resize Box to Fit Data option if you want the Annotation Box to automatically resize depending on the text length of the annotation.
10. Click OK.
