Annotation Tab

The Annotation tab is used to change text properties of lanes, bands, shapes as well as text annotation displayed on the image.

The Annotation tab has controls that operate on selected "features" and added annotation. The last used values (e.g., color and size) are used when any shape, band or lane is created from the Analysis tab.

When the font family, font size, or font style (bold or italic) are changed, all selected features will display the new attribute. When an attribute is changed, it is not displayed on unselected annotation.

If multiple selections have different text attributes, the attribute is shown in the text control as an empty selection.

The Bold and Italic font buttons are toggles that display the current style of the selected text. If multiple features are selected with different styles, pressing Bold removes the bold attribute from all selected text. Pressing the Bold button again sets all text to be bold. Likewise, the Italic button sets all text to be italic. Pressing the Italic button a second time causes all selected text to no longer display as italic.

The Edit Text button is used to change annotation text.

Click Features at the top left corner of the Display panel to toggle between displaying and hiding all features on the image. Features include Bands, Lanes, Wells, Spots, Annotations, and more. Select specific features to display or hide on the Show group in each Analysis tab.
