■ Full Annotation — Reevaluates any expression-based text, as well as
other properties of the annotation (for example, the insertion point
and the layer on which the annotation resides).
For example, if you use the expression .CENTER to specify the insertion
point of the text, the annotation is displayed in the center of the
circle. If you resize and move the circle, the Strings Only option
changes the text to reflect the new size, but does not change the
position of the text. The annotation text is longer centered in the
circle. The Full Annotation option updates the text to reflect the new
size and moves the annotation to the center of the relocated, resized
circle.

Updating Annotation
When you add or remove text in an
annotation template (page 2055), you can
update all existing annotations using that annotation template to apply those
changes. The text in existing annotations does not update automatically.
The Update command completely erases and regenerates all annotation based
on a specified annotation template.
When you update the annotations, you can choose whether to retain or discard
any advanceds settings you specified when you inserted the original
annotation.
