figure Graphics and Animations figure Annotate...

  You can annotate the display with the text of your choice.

figure

1.   Enter the text describing the plot (e.g., Temperature Along the Top Centerline), in the Annotation Text field.

2.   Click Add.

  A Working dialog box will appear telling you to select the desired location of the text using the mouse-probe button.

3.   Click the right mouse button in the graphics display window where you want the text to appear, and you will see the text displayed at the desired location (Figure  24.21).

Extra:   If you want to move the text to a new location on the screen, click Delete Text, and click Add once again, defining a new position with the mouse.

Note:   Depending on the size of the graphics window and the hardcopy file format you choose, the font size of the annotation text you see on the screen may be different from the font size in a hardcopy file of that graphics window. The annotation text font size is absolute, while the rest of the items in the graphics window are scaled to the proportions of the hardcopy.
