Placement Metadata Annotation Options

Features may be annotated using any of the built-in methods described in the table below. Any of the checked annotation modes will be available to annotate the current feature. The "On" method is only valid for linear feature types.

Mode	Description
View	Annotation is placed parallel to view.
Rotated	Annotation is placed parallel to view and then allowed to rotate to a user defined rotation.
Away	The Away mode is typically used when the space available for annotation is limited. The Away mode is used to place a bubble with a reference number near the feature and then places a matching bubble with the annotation text adjacent to it.
Align	The annotation is placed at the same angle as the feature.
Leadered	The annotation is placed at the end of a leader line.
On	The annotation is placed on the linear element. The text style used for this type of annotation should have background fill enabled. Not available for cell or text features.
