Place Keynote
Used to place keynote symbols, descriptions, and leader lines in a drawing. Keynotes are drawing annotations that identify components of a drawing by short code numbers instead of lengthy descriptions.
Accessed from:Keynotes are composed of three parts:
- a keynote symbol — the code number
- a keynote description — the equivalent text annotation
- keynote leader lines — one or more lines and arrowheads that connect a keynote symbol to its associated drawing component.
A keynote is placed with a symbol and the first line of a description. If the symbol and description are on different levels, display of the description can be turned off by turning off the level.
