Annotation Style Management

What

Allows the activation and management of annotation styles  defined by the Top_PallStylesManager command .

Why

Through the interface of this command it is possible to see and manage the styles present in the drawing.

When you set a particular style current, all QS annotation commands will work according to the settings of that style.

How

Once the command is launched, the user will be presented with the following interface that allows the management of annotation styles.

The top section lists the balloon styles present in the current drawing.

The asterisk next to the name indicates the current bullet style. To activate a different style, simply double-click on its name.

“Isolate” Leaves only the balloon objects associated with the selected style visible in the drawing. As a result, the selected style becomes current.

“Turn All On” Makes all balloon objects of all styles in the current drawing visible.

“Import”  allows you to import a prototype defined in the current environment into the drawing through a dialog window.

"Settings" allows you to view and change the settings of the styles in the current drawing. The change applies only to the current drawing. Simply select the style whose settings you want to change at the top of the dialog.

"Align from Prototype"  allows you to align the settings of the selected style to the associated prototype (if present), so as to import the changes made to the starting prototype into the local style of the current drawing.

Associate " allows the user to select a set of balloon objects (Title Block, Table, Balloon...) and make them point to the current style. This operation simply changes the reference of those entities, but does not update the entities according to the style they are associated with.
