Annotation

Adds a descriptive comment to an action. Annotation is different from the Note action in that with Annotation you can put a connector between the annotation and the action to which the annotation applies. The Note action is standalone, meaning there is no connection between it and any other actions.

When you click and drag Annotation onto your canvas, you will notice that, unlike other actions, the icon turns into a gray space. You can resize the annotation area by clicking the bottom-right corner of the action and dragging it in or out to your desired size. You can enter your annotation in the action's Properties, either directly into the property field or clicking the ellipsis to open the string editor.
