Description
The MapAnnotation_RM command will return a list containing information about map annotations. Specify WindowID <WinNumber> to return map annotations for a specific 2d map window.
The following information is returned for each annotation:
<idNumber>, {AnnotationType}, <color>, {PointType}, <first x/lat>, <first y/lon> [, <text>]
The value returned for {AnnotationType} can be Text, Polygon, Line, or Marker. <color> is returned in hexadecimal format. The value returned for {PointType} can be LL, Pixel, XY, or Pixel%. <text> is only returned for Text annotations, and will return up to 30 characters.
If {PointType} is LL then the first <lat>, <lon> values are returned in Connect latitude and longitude units, respectively. For other {PointType} values the first <x>, <y> values are returned.
The returned annotation list is ordered by annotation type.
The following table describes the {Option} values.
