5.9 Editing and Displaying Module Notes

Module notes allow the user to document the purpose of each module by attaching notes to each module in the NetEdit window. Notes can be displayed or hidden.

To create or edit module notes, choose menu item Notes from a module's pop-up menu. The note editor dialog can also be activated by clicking Button1 on notes displayed in the NetEdit window. Enter new notes or edit existing notes in the note editor dialog.

Notes may be hidden, displayed in tooltips, or displayed in the NetEdit frame. The note editor provides the following note display options: Default, Tooltip, Top, Left, Right, or Bottom. Choose a display mode by clicking Button1 on the appropriate button.

Choose Tooltip to display notes as tooltips. Notes are displayed only when the mouse pointer hovers over a module.

Choose one of Default, Top, Left, Right, or Bottom to display notes in the NetEdit to the right, top, left, right, or bottom of the module respectively.

Choose None to hide module notes. Displayed notes can be hidden by clicking Button2 when the pointer is on the notes. Hiding notes does not delete notes.

Click button Text Color to change the color of notes displayed in the NetEdit frame.

Click button Cancel to abort note editing.

Click button Clear to erase notes.
