Sets style defaults for new annotations in screenshots and recordings.
An omitted argument leaves its setting alone, an explicit NULL
restores the built-in default, and a value sets it. The defaults
apply to the pipeline the staged context flows through: pz_find*()
contexts inherit them, while a fresh pipeline from the original
context starts from the defaults – assign the result
(page <- page |> pz_stage_annotate(...)) to set page-wide defaults.
Per-call annotation style arguments override these defaults; note
the per-call names on pz_annotate() differ
(label_fill/label_text_color) from the staged names
(fill/text_color), and the staged fill and text color style
callout chrome only, not mark badges.
Usage
pz_stage_annotate(
ctx,
...,
color = NULL,
fill = NULL,
text_color = NULL,
stroke_width = NULL,
distance = NULL,

Examples
page <- pz_open(pz_example("tasks"))
path <- file.path(tempdir(), "tasks.png")
# Assignment makes these styles page-wide defaults for new annotations
page <- page |> pz_stage_annotate(color = "#2563eb", font_size = 16)
page |> pz_annotate("#add-task", label = TRUE) |> pz_screenshot(path)
# A one-off pipeline can undo a default with NULL: its callout uses
# the built-in red again
page |>
pz_stage_annotate(color = NULL) |>
pz_annotate("#task-title", label = TRUE) |>
pz_screenshot(path, frame = pz_frame("#task-title", pad = 16, target_box = "annotated"))
