Which tool would you use for adding notes and annotations to your drawings in SolidWorks?

The annotation feature is specifically designed for adding notes and annotations to technical drawings in SolidWorks. It provides a comprehensive set of tools that allow users to include various types of annotations, such as text notes, symbols, and comments directly onto the drawing. Utilizing the annotation feature ensures that the information is clearly communicated and properly aligned with the corresponding elements of the drawing, making it easier for viewers to understand the context and details associated with the design.

While other tools like the text box tool and the dimension tool serve specific purposes—such as adding textual information or specifying measurements—they do not encompass the full range of capabilities provided by the annotation feature. The mark-up tool is typically used for providing feedback or making temporary changes rather than for formal annotations within the design documentation itself. The annotation feature is thus the most suitable choice for adding structured and relevant information to drawings in SolidWorks.
