Examples

The following example shows how to create and start an AnnotationService.

// ------------------------ StartAnnotations --------------------------
/// <summary>
///   Enables annotations and displays all that are viewable.</summary>
private void StartAnnotations()
{
    // If there is no AnnotationService yet, create one.
    if (_annotService == null)
        // docViewer is a document viewing control named in Window1.xaml.
        _annotService = new AnnotationService(docViewer);

    // If the AnnotationService is currently enabled, disable it.
    if (_annotService.IsEnabled)
        _annotService.Disable();

    // Open a stream to the file for storing annotations.
    _annotStream = new FileStream(
        _annotStorePath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite);

    // Create an AnnotationStore using the file stream.
    _annotStore = new XmlStreamStore(_annotStream);

    // Enable the AnnotationService using the new store.
    _annotService.Enable(_annotStore);
}// end:StartAnnotations()

' ------------------------ StartAnnotations --------------------------
''' <summary>

Private Sub StartAnnotations()
    ' If there is no AnnotationService yet, create one.
    If _annotService Is Nothing Then
        ' docViewer is a document viewing control named in Window1.xaml.
        _annotService = New AnnotationService(docViewer)
    End If

    ' If the AnnotationService is currently enabled, disable it.
    If _annotService.IsEnabled = True Then
        _annotService.Disable()
    End If

    ' Open a stream to the file for storing annotations.
    _annotStream = New FileStream(_annotStorePath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite)

    ' Create an AnnotationStore using the file stream.

Disable()	Disables annotations processing and hides all visible annotations.
Enable(AnnotationStore)	Enables the AnnotationService for use with a given AnnotationStore and displays all visible annotations.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetService(DocumentViewerBase)	Returns the AnnotationService instance associated with a specified document viewing control.
GetService(FlowDocumentReader)	Returns the AnnotationService associated with a specified FlowDocumentReader.
GetService(FlowDocumentScrollViewer)	Returns the AnnotationService associated with a specified FlowDocumentScrollViewer.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
