# Annotations Panel in Video Review

**Annotations** added are displayed in the **Video Review** in two ways:

* indicated by **markers (flags)** over the timeline
* **listed in chronological order** - with the most recent one listed at the top - in the **Annotations** panel

Annotations are color-coded with the flag icons having a color corresponding to the annotation listed in the panel, placed at the point on the timeline when the annotation was added.

The added annotations are listed with the *exact time, the text and the learner(s)* to whom the annotation refers.


:::warning
***IMPORTANT:*** By default, annotations are added with reference to **all the assigned learners**, that is, all the learners assigned via the [**Record Control panel**](/doc/04cf50b0-afc7-46a3-a986-db48b982ffff) are attached to a specific annotation.  
To withdraw the reference of a specific annotation to a specific learner, click the red **X** in the field of their name.

:::warning
**Learners** can see annotations of **All learners by default** but can only annotate to peer learners if they are [**assigned to them**](/doc/assignments-tab-6wVg4cYdGO). Other learners are displayed in an **orange frame**.

## Adding Annotations during Video Review

While annotations added during live recording are displayed as described above, annotations can also be made during video review - [**by users with the necessary privilege**](/doc/43115a20-1370-4377-80b2-beba7ad5ee14).

### How to add a preset annotation


1. Select a category by clicking a category icon to have the list of preset annotations within that category.
2. At the relevant part of the recording, click the annotation intended to be added.  
     
   ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/6c0da235-ff99-49fd-81af-d32f613692dd/1c078d81-07c6-44d6-b698-19ddca388a47/90310144.gif?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=feb7bbefe3d1ce5519ab67d583a599c4c51092b140697c5218e65e292d23c9cb&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =403x626")

The added annotation will be listed below the **preset annotations** with the exact time of the attachment and the learner's name, and it will also be marked color-coded on the timeline.


:::tip
The learner's name can be removed by clicking the **X** next to it.

**Each added annotation** will be listed below the preset annotations from hence on.
