You can assign the same annotation type to two or more IATB controls. When you do, you can set some of the properties of each control to different values to create distinctive annotation styles.
You may want to include two buttons (controls) in your application that let users draw two different types of Attach-a-Note annotations.
While both controls are assigned to the same annotation type, each is set to different AnnotationBackColor and AnnotationFontColor property values, resulting in two distinct annotation styles. One button lets users draw Attach-a-Note annotations with a yellow background and black text, while the other button lets users draw Attach-a-Note annotations with a red background and white text.
