Add Annotations & Info

Annotate...         Add Info

 

From an Open Cmap:

You can add descriptive text annotations to a Cmap. Annotations can be used to remind you where you left off during the creation of a Cmap. Another way to use annotations is by creating a comment or suggestion for someone else's Cmap. To create an annotation, right-click the Cmap where you want the annotation to appear, then left-click Annotate...


A new annotation will appear with fields for adding text, your name, and an email address. If you left-click the exit button, the annotation will not be saved. To save the annotation, left-click the minimize button.


Now when viewing the Cmap, the annotation you created appears as a yellow repositionable icon.






From an Open Cmap:

You can add viewable information and keywords to a concept in a Cmap. To add information to a concept, right-click a concept, then left-click Add Info....


The "Add Info" window opens, where you can add information to the concept. Information that is added in the box next to Mouse Over Info: will appear when the mouse pointer hovers above the concept. Keywords or other phrases may be added to the box next to Hidden Info: for use with the search tool. To transfer information added in the "Add Info" window to the selected concept, left-click OK.


Now when viewing the Cmap, you can mouse over a concept that has additional mouse over info and a box with that info will appear over the concept.
