Hi,  
We are trying to get the color for changed annotation after any operation like modify/create.  
how can we get color for modified or newly created annotation? is it possible to do so?

Thank you,

Hi,

You can get the StrokeColor and FillColor properties right off the annotation object.

```javascript
  const { annotManager } = instance;

  annotManager.on('annotationChanged', (annots) => { 
    annots.forEach(annot => {
      const { StrokeColor, FillColor } = annot;
      console.log(StrokeColor, FillColor);
    })
  })

```

Thanks!  
Logan
