What I want to know is can I somehow force annotations to appear to display at the same pensizes/font sizes during a zoom. I dont want to scale the annotations down as I want to keep the measurments etc but I would like to be able to zoom in on an area that has an annotation inside it and still see the annotation in the same size as it was before I zoomed in (ie not magnified larger by the zoom) I hope I am expressing this clearly enough that you can understand. Best Regards Thanks    Report

Then right-click on the annotation and select Text Properties > Fixed. In the Text Properties dialog, check the Fixed box in the Fixed tab.   When you zoom in or out the image, the annotation size remains the same.

All of the annotations' properties are based in bitmap coordinates.  If you want the text (or other properties not affecting the actual value of the annotation) to be a standard size in client coordinates, you'll have to convert the client values into bitmap values using Transformer.*ToLogical.   For example, if you want the text to be 18 pixels high in client coordinates, then you need to convert 18 to bitmap coordinates using LenghToLogical, then use that value for the Font.Size.Value property.
