Mask & Annotation Presets

As of v0.7.0, you can use presets for annotation color/label pairs. To use a preset, first go to the settings page by clicking on the gear icon:

If you are using the chrome extension, you can also get to this page by right clicking on the extension icon, then "Options" (upper right).

Have an XML file ready that looks like this:

<Mask>
  <Background>#cd7f32</Background>
  <Annotations>
    <Annotation color="#ff0000">Label 1</Annotation>
  </Annotations>
</Mask>

You do not need to include a DOCTYPE or processing instruction tag. Masks can be taken from an existing X3P file by opening its manifest.xml file and looking for a Mask element in Record3.

Once you are on the settings page and have a preset file ready, click on "Upload Preset":

Select your mask file, then click "Return to Application".
