Place an Annotation - Intergraph Smart P&ID - Help - Intergraph

1. In the Catalog Explorer list view, select the annotation that you want to place from the Graphics folder.

2. Click to place the annotation at the appropriate place in the drawing.

3. Press ESC to quit placement mode.

4. To add text to the annotation, place a design label on the annotation. See Place a Two-Point Label and Place a One-Point Label.

5. Assign text to the annotation in the Note Text property box in the Properties window. You can resize annotations by dragging their parametric handles. See Scale a Parametric Item.

There are several design labels of different formats available in Catalog Explorer. Most of these labels require placing an annotation point or other design graphic on the drawing first and then attaching a label to the graphic, as in the procedure above. The plain annotation point is located in the Graphics folder under the Annotation node; however, there is one item in the Labels folder with an annotation point built into it. The symbol is called Item Note & Label, and it looks like this:

1. Annotation point
2. Item note
