Hi @SH_94 ,

 

To edit annotations, what you have to do is select the tool you want to edit the annotation of and then from the configuration window click the label icon as shown below.

You will find a big window saying annotation, which you can then go on and edit. Once you are done, click anywhere on your canvas and the new annotation will appear underneath the tool.

Conversely, how can I add annotations on the canvas?

Oh no worries guys, it was just a simple case of adding the "Comment" tool onto the canvas. Was looking hard for annotations and I should be looking for comments, not annotations.
