Using the Style Palette (Inspector)
NOTE: This video shows a slightly older user interface but the instructions are still accurate.
After you've created an annotation such as a text marking, some typing, a free drawing, or a shape, touch or click it and this palette will be displayed; select Inspector:
Different annotation types have different attributes that you can set. For example, with a text annotation you can set (among other things) the font, with a drawing you can set the line thickness, and with an arrow you can set (among other things) the arrowhead type.
All annotations allow you to set the color, the opacity, and the order (if annotations are on top of or below other annotations). Each annotation's color scheme can be set by choosing from a number of customizable color presets.
