Available fields change for text, shapes, measurements, lines, highlights, and other markup types.
Edit a selected markup
- 1

- 2
Open Properties
Click Properties in the sidebar rail.
- 3
Change fields
Edit general fields, appearance, fill, line, font, layout, and measurement options shown for that markup.
Know why fields change
Text exposes font controls, shapes expose fill controls, lines expose caps, and measurement markups expose measurement-related fields. Missing controls usually mean the selected markup type does not support that property.
