This article covers the exhaustive set of attributes and macros supported by annotations in FusionCharts Suite XT.

General Configuration Attributes

The root annotations object accepts a number of attributes for configuring generic aspects of annotations globally.

These attributes are defined using the code structure shown below:

{
    "annotations": {
        // Define the general configuration attributes here.
    }
}

Configuration Attributes for Annotation Groups

Annotation groups accept a number of attributes to uniformly configure all annotation items contained within them. Default values for group attributes are inherited from the ones defined as root-level annotation attributes.

These attributes are defined using the code structure shown below:

{
    "annotations": {
        "groups": [{
            //Define the group configuration attributes here.
        }]
    }
}

Configuration Attributes for Annotation Items

These attributes are defined using the code structure shown below:

{
    "annotations": {
        "groups": [{
            "items": [{
                //Define the annotation items configuration attributes here.
            }]
        }]
    }
}

For simplicity, the annotation items configuration attributes are segregated into:

• Common attributes (that work for all annotation types)

• Ad hoc attributes (that work for only certain annotation types)
