Converting Annotations to Comments

Annotations made to streams or SuperNodes can be converted into comments.

In the case of streams, the annotation is converted to a freestanding comment (that is, it is not attached to any nodes) on the stream canvas.

When a SuperNode annotation is converted to a comment, the comment is not attached to the SuperNode on the stream canvas, but is visible when you zoom in to the SuperNode.

To convert a stream annotation to a comment

1. Click Stream Properties on the Tools menu. (Alternatively, you can right-click a stream in the managers pane and click Stream Properties.)
2. Click the Annotations tab.
3. Select the Show annotation as comment check box.
4. Click OK.

To convert a SuperNode annotation to a comment

1. Double-click the SuperNode icon on the canvas.
2. Click the Annotations tab.
3. Select the Show annotation as comment check box.
4. Click OK.
