WAVE maintains a record of several of the most recently used settings in the Annotation Template (this information is not saved when you exit WAVE , however). You can cycle through these settings if you have a three-button mouse; to do so, press and hold the middle button as if to insert an annotation, then click left or right to change the contents of the Annotation Template. (If you don't wish to insert an annotation, release the middle button before releasing the left or right button.) This feature is particularly useful if you are manually annotating a record and you find it necessary to use a small number of different annotations to do so.
