Re: Removing annotation objects

[Software FX]

Hi to remove a annotation object use "Remove Method". This method is used to

remove an object from a group or from the entire annotation objects list.

Object.Remove ObjectIndex   where,

Object is the variable holding the pointer to the annotation list or group.

ObjectIndex is the index of the object you want to remove.

-1 if you want to remove all objects.

For example to remove the third object in the list:

AnnotX.Remove 3
