Text and leaders

Text​

  1. In Annotate (or Home > Annotations), click Text (shortcut T).
  2. Click where the note should sit.
  3. Type the content in the prompt. Use \n inside the text to force a line break, which turns the note into a multi-line text.

Select a text to edit its content and position later in the Properties panel.

Leaders​

A leader is an arrow that points at something, with a note at the other end.

  1. Click Leader in the Annotate tab.
  2. Click the point to indicate (the arrow tip).
  3. Click where the text should sit.

A text note and a leader on the plan

The leader is created with an empty note: the status bar reminds you to type the content in the Properties panel while it is selected.

Room labels​

Room name and area labels are not text entities, they belong to the room. To reposition one, use the Lbl tool described in Rooms and slabs.
