Configuring annotation permissions

In the SRC file, you can set user permissions for annotations. These permissions define whether users can:

· double-click annotations to display them as text or as an icon. (You can still use the View, Annotations, Maximize and View, Annotations, Minimize commands to display annotations as text or as icons.)

· delete annotations

· change the text in annotations

To configure annotation permissions:

1. Open the SRC file in a text editor.

In the [System] section:

2. Type allow annotations to be accessed=0 so that users cannot double-click annotations. (By default, this keyname is set to 1.)

The pointer normally changes shape to an annotation icon when passing over annotations. When this keyname is set to 0, the pointer does not change.

3. Type allow annotations to be deleted=0 so that users cannot delete annotations. (By default, this keyname is set to 1.)

4. Type allow text to be changed for annotation=0 so that users cannot change the text in annotations. (By default, this keyname is set to 1.)

5. Save the SRC file and compile it. (For details, see Compiling a CFG file.)

If you change the CFG files during an Imagenation session, both current and future annotations are affected.

Note that you can change the appearance of the pointer that appears when it passes over annotations. For details, see Defining pointers.
