3. Numeric increment: Type increment value for numeric annotations. Value can have decimal places.
4. Decimal places: Rounding value for numeric annotations.
5. Starting letter: Initial letter from which the annotations will begin.
6. Prefix: Type text to be included before each annotation.
7. Suffix: Type text to be appended to each text annotation.
8. Text size: Type text size for auto incrementing annotations.
9. Distance selector button: Click to set text size by selecting distance between two points in drawing.
10. Units: Check if text size will be in drawing units or in plotting units according to corresponding layout scale.

1. Text settings: Select layer, color style and font for auto incrementing annotations.
2. Annotative: Check if the total sum of lengths annotation height will change when the corresponding layout scale is modified.
3. Specify text rotation in drawing: Check if text rotation will be specified every time an annotation is inserted.
4. Text rotation: Type default text rotation for auto incrementing annotation.
5. Angle selector button: Click to select angle selecting two points in drawing to set text rotation angle.
