Multiple annotation tools share the same position on the tool set in some workspaces. Click and hold the mouse on the visible tool to open the Pop-out tools list and select the desired tool.

The Geom Dim and Tol Note tool inserts a notation symbol and text specifying the dimension of round, square, counterbore, and/or countersink holes, and unit ratio for conical and/or flat tapers. Alternatively, a depth symbol and associated text can be inserted.
