DesignSeries00028.pngEditing a Database Callout

The database callout can be edited after placement.

To edit a database callout:

1. To change the note text, select the callout and click Edit Note in the Object Info palette.

2. The Notes Manager:Callout dialog box opens. Select a different note as described in Placing Database Callouts, and click OK.

3. Other callout parameters can be edited in the Object Info palette as for an ordinary callout object. For more information on the Callout tool, see Inserting Callouts or Keynotes.

4. If there are several callout objects, use the Align/Distribute Leader Lines command to improve readability (see Aligning and Distributing Leader Lines).

5. After placement, a database callout can be converted into an ordinary callout object by clicking Edit Note in the Object Info palette, and then clicking Hide Database Controls. The callout text can then be edited, and the database text is not affected.
