Hi Arif Akbas

For Number of Holes, please use Hole Callout command, refer to attached video: HoleCallOut.wmv
For number of slots, there is not straightforward command, but there is a way to work around, please refer to attached video: NoteToDimensionLinking.wmv

It needs a few more steps, but the note for slots is parametric as it updates when the feature dimensions change.

        Hi Arif,
        
        To change the colors go to options - system options - colors and change the Interface Brightness option (you have three to choose from).
        Mine is set to Light (the default setting), looks like yours is set to Dark
        
        Thanks
