2. Include Note

Include Note default toggle value is ‘Yes’. A note can be associated with every annotation (shape) drawn on an image. By default, the annotation asks for a note right after it is drawn on the image. The Include Note property can be disabled to not ask the user to add notes for every annotation drawn. If disabled, the note section does not appear after drawing the shape, but still, a note can be added later when a shape is selected by clicking on it.

To view annotations and notes on photos, select the image in Data and click the View Annotations icon—Example shown below.

Tooltip: Allows the integration of additional textual information, descriptions, or comments alongside the shared photos. Enhances context and understanding for viewers by providing accompanying notes or details about the images.
