Working with Balloons, Lines, and Highlighted Areas

Below are some things to keep in mind when placing and working with annotations:

  • When you've selected or placed an annotation on your image, you'll see "handles" (little white squares) appear around the annotation to confirm that it is selected. Click and drag a handle to adjust the size.

  • With an annotation is selected, press Delete on your keyboard to remove it from the image.

  • Right-click an annotation to quickly flip it horizontally, vertically, or delete it.

  • To add multiple annotations to the image, click the Apply button (rather than Save Images) after you add each annotation. This way, you can keep editing all the annotations before you save your changes. That's helpful if you need to carefully position each annotation relative to the others.
