Declaration

public TextAnnotation AddTextAnnotation()

Returns

Type Description
TextAnnotation

A TextAnnotation object representing the text annotation to be added.

Remarks

This method adds a TextAnnotation object with the default settings to the annotations collection of a chart, pane or series point.

To add a text annotation with the specified options, use the overloaded AddTextAnnotation methods with the name and text parameters.

After an annotation is added to an element’s collection, it can be accessed via the corresponding property of this element (ChartControl.Annotations, XYDiagramPaneBase.Annotations, or SeriesPoint.Annotations). Alternatively, to centrally access all annotations that are present in a chart control, use the ChartControl.AnnotationRepository property.

For more information, refer to Annotations.
