Type of annotation—text (note), area, or image. This property is read only.

note_annotation | area_annotation | image_annotation

Background color of this annotation.

RGB value array | [r,g,b,a] where r, g, b, and a are the red, green, blue, and alpha values of the color normalized to the range 0.0 to 1.0, delineated with commas. The alpha value is optional and ignored.

Annotation background color can also be 'automatic' (transparent), 'black', 'white', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow', 'gray', 'lightBlue', 'orange', 'darkGreen'.

Specifies MATLAB^® code to execute when you click this annotation. See Associate a Click Function with an Annotation for more information.

Description of this annotation.

character vector

Turn drop shadow display on or off.

'on' | {'off'}

Specify whether the bottom border of the annotation resizes as you add content.

'on' | {'off'}, where 'off' means that the bottom border resizes as you add content

Specify whether to use word wrap or to have the width of the annotation expand to accommodate text.

'on' | {'off'}, where 'off' means to use word wrap

Angle of the annotation font. The default value, 'auto', uses of the default font angle specified for lines in the Font Styles dialog box.

'normal' | 'italic' | 'oblique' | {'auto'}

Name of annotation font. The default value, 'auto', uses the default font specified for lines in the Font Styles dialog box.

character vector

Size of annotation font in points. The default value, -1, uses the default text size for lines specified in the Font Styles dialog box.

decimal number | {'-1'}

Weight of the annotation font. The default value, 'auto', use of the default weight for lines specified in the Font Styles dialog box.

'light' | 'normal' | 'demi' | 'bold' | {'auto'}

Foreground color of this annotation.

RGB value array | [r,g,b,a] where r, g, b, and a are the red, green, blue, and alpha values of the color normalized to the range 0.0 to 1.0, delineated with commas. The alpha value is optional and ignored.

Annotation foreground color can also be 'black', 'white', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow', 'gray', 'lightBlue', 'orange', 'darkGreen'.

Annotation handle.

real

For internal use.

Horizontal alignment of this annotation.

'center' | {'left'}|'right'

Specifies whether the annotation is interpreted as rich text or contains LaTeX commands. The default value, 'off', specifies a plain text annotation. When you format a plain text annotation using the formatting toolbar, the annotation becomes a rich text annotation.

'rich' | 'tex' | {'off'}

Specifies whether the annotation is an image-only annotation.

'on' | {'off'}

Space from the bounding box of text to the borders of the annotation.

1x4 array [left top right bottom]. The default is [1 1 1 1].

Supported coordinates are between -1073740824 and 1073740823, inclusive.

MATLAB code to execute when the model containing this annotation is loaded. See Annotation Callback Functions.

character vector

Text of annotation. Same as Text.

character vector

Parent name of annotation object.

character vector

Path to the annotation.

character vector

Read-only display of the text in the annotation, without formatting.

vector

Location of the annotation.

vector of coordinates, in pixels: [left top right bottom]

The origin is the upper-left corner of the Simulink^® Editor canvas before any canvas resizing. Supported coordinates are between -1073740824 and 1073740823, inclusive. Positive values are to the right of and down from the origin. Negative values are to the left of and up from the origin.

For internal use.

character vector

Specifies whether this annotation is currently selected.

'on' | 'off'

Text to assign to the annotation Tag parameter and save with the annotation.

character vector

Specifies whether to render TeX markup.

'on' | {'off'}

Text of annotation. Same as Name.

character vector

Annotation type. This is always 'annotation'.

'annotation'

Specifies whether to use the contents of the Text property as the click function for this annotation.

If set to 'on', the text of the annotation is interpreted as a valid MATLAB expression and run. If set to 'off', clicking the annotation runs the click function, if there is one. If there is no click function, clicking the annotation has no effect.

See Associate a Click Function with an Annotation for more information.

'on' | {'off'}

Any data that you want to associate with this annotation.

vector

Vertical alignment of this annotation.

'middle' | {'top'}|'cap'|'baseline'|'bottom'
