Markup

The viewer supports markup in the Vault Client and the Thin Client.

Markup consists of annotations that you can superimpose on a design or drawing in the viewer.

To access markup tools in the viewer:

1. View a file.
   Note: To view a file in the Thin Client, view the topic Thin Client - The Viewer.
2. Select Markup in the viewer toolbar.
3. Select a markup tool.
   Note: Use the Undo and Redo buttons as needed to remove and re-insert annotations.

Markup Tools

• Freehand: Draws or highlights on the design.
• Text: Adds a text annotation. You can modify the color, size, border, and fill of the text.
• Callout: Draws an arrow with text annotation.
• Cloud: Draws a rectangle with curly edges. Select Polycloud to draw a series of connected lines.
• Shape (rectangle by default): Draws one of the following shapes, depending on selection (click the Shape icon to select a different shape):
  • Rectangle
  • Circle
  • Polyline
  • Line
• Arrow: Draws an arrow.
• Line Style: Defines the color and thickness of the selected markup.
• Fill Style: Defines the color and opacity of the selected shape's interior.

Save Snapshot

Markup isn't recorded in the viewer. To keep a reference copy of your markup, you can save a snapshot of the markup, downloaded as a .png file.

To save a local copy of your markup:

1. Complete your markup on the design.
2. Select Save Snapshot in the upper toolbar. A preview of the snapshot displays.
3. Enter a name for the local file.
4. Select Save.
