Notes

Creates an annotation wedge to be written directly onto the display at a specified location. This is a command generated by the Graphical User Interface (GUI) and will appear in the log file (Jobname.log) if annotation is used.

The command is not intended to be typed in directly in a Mechanical APDL session (although it can be included in an input file for batch input or for use with /INPUT).

All wedges are shown on subsequent displays unless the annotation is disabled or deleted. Issue /LSPEC and /PSPEC to set the attributes of the wedge.

This command is valid in any processor.
