Hi

I have to detail these drawings attached i have used keynote element to do this, is there any way to add more specific notes to them rather than using text tool or is this the correct way?

thanks

Hey there,
Yes, the text tool is how you add notes. (Beyond the keynotes)
Good luck
Steve

Another way that you might consider is to use a multi-category tag instead of text. They will align with the keynote information better (in my experience) and if you are adding the same note everywhere (say the size of a metal stud or masonry unit) then you can pull from a type parameter and only type it once. Better still, if your boss comes along and wants to change the text it only needs to be done once.
