Callout
Callouts or callout bubbles are rectangular text boxes with a pointer to a particular area of interest.
Callouts are often used in comic strips, where the callout bubble contains
the speech of a person. In
documents
a callout will usually draw the readers attention to an important piece
of information or figure.
OpenOffice.org Draw lets you draw different kinds of
callout bubbles or boxes via the draw callout button in the drawing bar.
Callouts are drawing
objects
that can be sized
to different proportions.
Similar to callout bubbles are clouds.
