### Annotations

There are six main annotations that you can use on Labellerr

1. **Bounding Box**

2. **Polygon**

3. **Dot**

4. **Polyline**

5. **Keypoint**

<Info>
  For more on how to use annotations, check out the [How to Use Annotations](/actions/annotations-guide) guide.
</Info>

An annotation can also be edited based on classification, **Deleted** and **Hidden** easily. **Delete** can be used instead of **clear all answers** option if a single annotation is to be removed. **Hidden** is used when there is overlapping of different annotations. To avoid mistakes, some annotations can be hidden.

<Info>
  For more on deleting and hiding annotations, check out the [Delete, Hide and Unhide annotations](/actions/delete-hide-unhide) guide.
</Info>

Additionally, some editing tools for the samples are available. Move, Brightness, Crop, Selection tool and Zoom are the available tools. They are present on the upperr-center of the sample.
