Laminate Composites > Creating zones
Laminate annotation
Use the Annotate Laminate command to create notes that display elements' layup information. You can select and modify a note using the following right-click commands:
Hide—Hides the note in the graphics window.
Edit—Opens the Note dialog box so that you can change the content or format of the note.
Delete—Deletes the note.
You can also manage notes using the note manager. For more information, see Manage notes.
To avoid duplicating annotations in the same zone, you can turn on zone coloring. For more information, see Element color basis by laminate zone.
