how to make a dynamic annotation shape, where I can put any name, name and then delete it inside the dataminer's Viewer, without any connection with any element.
Note: The version of my dataminer is 10.1.0.0.

Hi Kaio, there is currently no such annotations shape in in the visual overview framework.
However, there are a few alternatives you can try:
- A setvar shape, setting a session variable that is not used for anything else. If you want to keep it specific to a single card or page, you can use the cardvar or pagevar scopes. This is the simplest solution, but will show only one line and has no formatting support.
- A link shape using # before the hyperlink to show the page inline, referring to an online notetaking service. Doing a quick online search I found that rapidtables notepad does not require any login, so it may be the easiest to implement (there may be others that do not require login too). Other well-know alternatives are Microsoft OneNote online, Evernote, Google Keep, ... but these do require a login.
