Adding a Keynote

You can add premade keynotes to a drawing from a database. A symbol displaying the keynote number and/or type is added to the drawing. You can add the legend for the keynotes as a table in the drawing. You can also add the keynote in the drawing as a regular reference line text without a symbol.

1. Select Texts > Insert Keynote.
2. Select the keynote in the dialog box.
