Example
The following example hides the Save button and
Hyperlink button for note annotations and just the
Save button for freehand
annotations:
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons1" value="save, hypertext" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds1" value="note" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons2" value="save" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds2" value="freehand" />
The following example also hides the Save button and
Hyperlink button for note annotations and just the
Save button for freehand
annotations:
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons1" value="save" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds1" value="note, freehand" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons2" value="hypertext" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds2" value="note" />
You can hide buttons for all annotation types by not specifying a corresponding annotationHideContextButtonsIds<N>> value. However, this action works only for the last pair. Therefore, the following example does not hide the Hyperlink button for all annotation types:
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons1" value="hypertext" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons2" value="save" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds2" value="note" />
The following example shows the correct way to hide the Hyperlink button for all annotation types:
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons1" value="save" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtonsIds1" value="note" />
<param name="annotationHideContextButtons2" value="hypertext" />
Sample syntax
<PARAM NAME="annotationHideContextButtons1" value="fillcolor, hyperlink">
Default setting: none
