Annotation positions

The Annotations collection always contains eight Annotation objects, each one of which corresponds to a position around the table. There are four “header” positions above the table: Title Header, Left Header, Center Header, and Right Header; and four “footer” positions below the table: Title Footer, Left Footer, Center Footer, and Right Footer. The following diagram shows these positions.

The following table shows the constants and their associated values that you use to specify the positions in your scripts. You can use the constant if your script is part of a data management script (.dms) file. If your script is a standalone .mrs file, you must use the numeric value or set up user-defined constants to represent the values (as shown in the Annotations.mrs sample).

Position	Constant	Value
Title header	AnnotationPosition.annTitleHeader	0
Left header	AnnotationPosition.annLeftHeader	1
Center header	AnnotationPosition.annCenterHeader	2
Right header	AnnotationPosition.annRightHeader	3
Title footer	AnnotationPosition.annTitleFooter	4
Left footer	AnnotationPosition.annLeftFooter	5
Center footer	AnnotationPosition.annCenterFooter	6
Right footer	AnnotationPosition.annRightFooter	7

You can set up the texts to be displayed in these positions for individual tables; as defaults to apply to new tables; or as global settings to apply to all of the tables in the table document.

Position	Description	Default value
Title Header	Project description	{ProjectDescription}
Left Header	Table description and filters	{TableDescription \n} {Filters \p}
Right Header	Table number and the description of the weighting variable and the population level	{TableNumber \p \n} {WeightVariable \l \n \p} {Level \l \p}
Left Footer	Cell contents and footnotes about the statistical tests, if any; details of any hide rules that have been applied; and warning messages for statistical tests and explanations of symbols	{CellContents \p \n} {Statistics \p \n \i-} {Rules \p \n} {CellItemSymbols \p \n} {PopulateWarnings \p}
