Using setProperty method on annotation tools

[reinierkops]

Hey guys,

Which are the setProperty commands i can use on the annotation tools?

ie:
for setting highlightcolor one uses SetProperty("Annots.Defaults.Hightlight.SColor", ColorTranslator.ToWin32(value), 0);

what can i use to set the following?

• * opacity of a color / annotation
  *) diameter of the eraser tool
  *) line width of pencil and callout tool
  *) line ending of the callout tool
  *) line style of the callout tool
  *) fill color of the calout tool
  *) stroke color of the callout tool
  *) image to use for stamp tool

cheers

These features and more other will be added into the next build (41 or 42).

Thanks.

Can you tell me if these things are added in this release?

I can't find any changelist or something?

Is there already a possibility to set the diameter of the eraser tool, and line width of pencil tool?

Not just now, but can be possible in the near future.
But .. you can use undocumented features:
setProperty("Tools.Eraser.Diameter", 20.0, 0); // 20 pt
setProperty("Commenting.Pencil.Styles[0].Border.Width", 2.0, 0); // 2 pt
setProperty("Commenting.Pencil.Styles[0].SColor", <RGB Color>, 0);
setProperty("Commenting.Pencil.Styles[0].Opacity", 0.5, 0); // 50% opacity
Note: in current version these changes will work properly but are unsynchronized with some UI-elements(cmdbars, comment styles palette),
and it requires setup parameters before using corresponding tools..

In next build (probably 41.4) these features (and more) will be finished and documented.

Where can I find all the supported commands? Or can you send it to me?

These commands will be added to help file right after their "official" release.
