#' Annotation for dygraph chart
#' 
#' Define a text annotation for a data-point on a dygraph chart.
#' 
#' @param dygraph Dygraph to add an annotation to
#' @param x Either numeric or date value indicating where to place the
#'   annotation. For date value, this should be of class \code{POSIXct} or
#'   convertible to \code{POSIXct}.
#' @param text Text to overlay on the chart at the location of x
#' @param tooltip Additional tooltip text to display on mouse hover
#' @param width Width (in pixels) of the annotation flag.
#' @param height Height (in pixels) of the annotation flag.
#' @param cssClass CSS class to use for styling the annotation.
#' @param tickHeight Height of the tick mark (in pixels) connecting the point to
#'   its flag or icon.
#' @param attachAtBottom If true, attach annotations to the x-axis, rather than 
#'   to actual points.
#' @param clickHandler JavaScript function to call when an annotation is 
#'   clicked.
#' @param mouseOverHandler JavaScript function to call when the mouse hovers 
#'   over an annotation.
#' @param mouseOutHandler JavaScript function to call when the mouse exits an 
#'   annotation.
#' @param dblClickHandler JavaScript function to call when an annotation is 
#'   double clicked.
#' @param series Series to attach the annotation to. By default, the last series
#'   defined using \code{\link{dySeries}}.
#'   
#' @note Annotations are bound to specific series in the input data. If you have
#'   only one series or if you define annotations immediately after a call to 
#'   \code{\link{dySeries}} then you need not specify the series explicitly. 
#'   Otherwise, you should use the \code{series} parameter to indicate which
#'   series the annotation should be bound to.
#'   
#'   Annotation event handlers can also specified globally (see 
#'   \code{\link{dyCallbacks}}).
#'   
#' @note See the
#'   \href{https://rstudio.github.io/dygraphs/gallery-annotations.html}{online
#'   documentation} for additional details and examples.

#' @return Dygraph with specified annotation
