Select this method to anchor your annotation to a point on the model. As with the Predefined method, the anchor point definition changes if you modify the viewport shape.
Enter the anchor point as a percentage of the total width and height of the current viewport. Select this method to anchor your annotation to a point based on the position of the lower left viewport corner and the viewport size. The anchor point definition changes if you modify the viewport shape. The available points are the viewport corners, the midpoint of each edge, and the center of the viewport. Select this method to anchor the annotation to a predefined point of viewport geometry. To avoid changing the position of the annotation, use the Pick Anchor button to change the anchor point and recalculate the Offset between the anchor point and the annotation. Select a new anchor point the following methods are available: For more information, see Manipulating annotations in the current viewport. You can select a reference point outside of the bounding box by entering values less than 0% or greater than 100%.Įnter new X- and Y-values to change the Offset, in millimeters, between the reference point and the anchor point.Īfter you close the Text Editor, you can also change the offset by dragging the text annotation in the viewport. If you rotate the text, the corner position is also rotated accordingly. As with the Predefined method, the reference point definition changes if you modify the text.Ībaqus/CAE determines the lower left corner position based on a 0° rotation angle. Enter the reference point as a percentage of the total width and height of the text bounding box. Select this method to define the reference point based on the position of the lower left bounding box corner and the bounding box size. The definition of the reference point changes if you modify the annotation text. The available points are the bounding box corners, the center, and the midpoint of each edge. Select this method to use a predefined point of the text bounding box geometry as the reference point. The following methods are available: Predefined The reference point is the point where a text annotation is attached to its anchor point Abaqus/CAE also uses the reference point as the center of rotation if you rotate the text. For more information, see Customizing colors.Ĭhoose Left, Center, or Right justification to arrange the text within the bounding box area.Įnter a rotation angle (in degrees) to orient the text 0° is horizontal.Ībaqus/CAE rotates the text counterclockwise about the Reference Point. Use one of the methods in the dialog box to select a new color.When you are done, click OK to implement your changes and to close the Select Font dialog box.For more information, see Customizing fonts. Use the Select Font dialog box to choose the font characteristics you want.The color sample changes to the selected color. Click OK to close the Select Color dialog box.For more information, see Customizing colors. Use one of the methods in the Select Color dialog box to select a new color.Other color to reveal other background color options.Ībaqus/CAE displays the Select Color dialog box. Transparent to eliminate the background and show only the text. Match viewport to match the background to the viewport color. To customize the background, click one of the following: When typing a text annotation, you can use standard mouse and keyboard editing techniques such as backspace, copy, and paste press Enter to start a new line. The bounding box visually separates the text from the underlying model or results. To display or suppress a box outlining the text, toggle Show bounding box. If you are creating a new annotation, you can edit the name of the text annotation. Select Viewport Edit Annotations or in the Viewport toolbar, and double-click a text annotation in the viewport.Ĭreate a new text annotation in the viewport Abaqus/CAE opens the editor after you select the text position in the viewport. Select a text annotation from the Annotation Manager, and click Edit. Use one of the following methods to access the Text Editor dialog box: For more information, see The Annotation Manager.
You can also copy a text annotation and its attributes and edit them to create a new text annotation. If you are editing an existing annotation, Abaqus/CAE applies your changes only to the selected annotation. If you are creating a new annotation, Abaqus/CAE applies many of your customizations not only to the current annotation but also to any new annotations you subsequently create.
