6) TheBox Size sub-control group has two windows that allow you to set the width and height in inches or centimeters for the dimensions of all Comment boxes depending on the Template being used.

Box Offset from Anchor Sub-Control Group

7) If the Set Globally checkbox is checked On, the X and Y values appearing in the windows adjacent to the right are enabled and can be edited to establish different horizontal and vertical displacements of the Comment boxes from their anchor locations on the tasks/milestone shapes.

8) If the Set Globally' checkbox is checked Off, all Comment boxes created in the chart are all offset from their anchor point by the default values shown in the windows adjacent to the right as shown in the example below where the offsets are the default values of X=1.0 and Y=1.0:

5) Background Color. The dropdown provides access to the standard Color Chooser. The selected color fills the comment box, the connecting line, and the outline color of the comment box. The color starts out always the same as that of the task/milestone to which the comment box is attached.

6) Transparent. This checkbox when checked makes the comment box and its connecting line transparent.

7) Anchor Position. This slider bar sets the location along the task at which the dependent comment boxes are anchored.

8) Anchor. This control sets the optional symbol that appears at the place where each dependent comment box is tethered to its task/milestone. These anchors, of which there are many, are the same as available for Milestone symbols.

9) Anchor Color. The dropdown provides access to the standard Color Chooser that you can use to establish the color of the anchor.

10) Attach to All Snapshots. This checkbox when checked assures that the comment box appears in all snapshots. The default action is to attach a new comment boxes to all snapshots.
