Annotating with Text and Arrows

Annotating an image means adding text or arrows to point out areas of interest: cracks,
indications, etc. You can annotate live, frozen, and recalled images.

this location hides or displays the soft keys and status bar.

can be moved (by dragging with your finger or using the joystick), Edited, or Deleted.
Select Done again to de-select the note.

– A selected Arrow (added in the same way as a note) appears with a ball at one end.
Move the arrow around the display by dragging with your finger (near the arrowhead)
or using the joystick. The arrow may also
be rotated by moving the ball with your
finger or with the Rotate soft key.
