Annotation guide

The annotation guide shows your project's guideline inside the task view, next to the work you are doing, so you don't need to switch to a separate document. It is organised the same way as the task: general rules first, then a page for each class, property and property value.

When a task has a guide, the guide window starts on screen minimised. You can open it in several ways:

A guide button appears only on rows the guide has content for. If a row has no button, the guide doesn't cover that item.

General — the rules that apply to the whole task, followed by an index of the task's classes. Each general section starts collapsed. Click a heading to expand it.

Class pages — what the class covers, followed by guidance for each of its properties.

Property pages — how to set the property, followed by guidance for each value. If the selected object already has a value for this property, the guide scrolls to that value and highlights it.

Guide pages can contain:

Classes, properties and values are listed in the same order and with the same names as in the right-side menu.

The breadcrumb at the top of the window (for example, General / Car / Occlusion) shows where you are in the guide. Click any part of it to go back to that page.

Use the search field at the top of the General page to search the whole guide: names, descriptions, Do and Don't lists, and example captions.

When you select an object, the guide changes to that object's class page. When you deselect it, the guide goes back to General. The guide never opens itself when you change your selection. If it is minimised or closed, it stays that way.
