How to enable annotation edit mode in React Diagram?

To enable annotation edit mode after a node is dropped from the symbol palette onto the React Diagram you can follow these steps:

Configure the Drop Event:

• Handle the drop event, which is triggered when an element is dropped from the symbol palette onto the diagram canvas.

Call the startTextEdit Method:

• Within the drop event handler, call the startTextEdit method of the diagram.
• The startTextEdit method initiates the editing mode for the associated annotation of the dropped node or connector.
• This allows users to directly modify the text of the dropped node or connector.

Refer to the code sample of the above steps:

 <DiagramComponent id="diagram" ref={diagram => (diagramInstance = diagram)} width={"100%"} height={"560px"}  
   drop={(args) => {
           diagram.startTextEdit();
       }}
 >
