Drawing your first timing diagram

Adding Annotation Edges
To add annotation edges (with labels), we first need to add connection points. To add a connection point, press and hold s and click anywhere on the canvas to place a connection point.
To make a connection between the two points, click on one of the points. A pop-up menu will show up where you can choose what type of edge would you like to draw.
Once the edge type is chosen, click again on the connection point and make a connection between the two points as shown below.

To customize an annotation edge or the label, double-click on the edge. The following sidebar will come up allowing you to customize the look and feel of the edge.
