Add Annotation

[digitaldogsbody]

Description

This helper will add an existing Annotation to the object's annotations key

Function name / Parameters / Return

Function name: .add_annotation(annotation)

Parameters: annotation - the Prezi3 Annotation object to be added

Returns: None

Objects

• Base Object (all Prezi3 Classes)
• Collection
• Manifest
• Canvas
• Range
• AnnotationCollection
• AnnotationPage
• Annotation
• Content Resource - Image
• Content Resource - Video
• Content Resource - Text
• Service
• Provider
• Other - please list below

Considerations

Annotations must exist within an AnnotationPage object, so the helper must create and add one if one is not already present. Otherwise the Annotation should be added to the first existing AnnotationPage

Use case for content resources is if you want to annotate a particular image / layer rather than the constructed canvas.

[giacomomarchioro]

I was wondering if a user wants to create multiple annotation pages (if this makes sense) should we provide a parameter to append the new annotation to a new annotation page?

I've added annotations to Content Resources in:
