Setting Basic Graphical Properties 

This task shows you how to set graphical properties from the Text Properties toolbar for a textual annotation.

Open the Annotations_Part_04.CATPart document:
  1. Select the annotation text.

  2. Select the Bold and Italic options from the Text Properties toolbar.

    The text is modified accordingly.
  3. De-select the text.

    The Bold and Italic options are de-selected too.
