[MStn CE U16.2] Create table as annotation?

Question

Hi, 
 when I create table manually (using Place Table tool), it's automatically placed as annotation (the property IsAnnotation = true). 
 But when I do the same from C# API (through TextTable and TextTableElement), Annotation property is set to false. 
 How the table can be set to be annotation? I do not see e.g. IsAnnotation (like for cells) or anything similar both in NET and C++ API. 
 Or the only way (I did not test it yet) is to place the table and to change the property using e.g. EC property? 
 With regards, 
 Jan

I don't try .NET but C++ API can implement this as below: 
 void createAnnotationTextTable(WCharCP unparsed)
 {
 DgnModelP pDgnModel = ISessionMgr::GetActiveDgnModelP();
 DgnTextStylePtr pTxtStyle = DgnTextStyle::GetActive();
 TextTablePtr pTable = TextTable::Create(3, 4, pTxtStyle->GetID(), 1000, *pDgnModel);
 pTable->SetOrigin(DPoint3d::From(1000, 1000));

 EditElementHandle eeh;
 TextTableHandler::CreateTextTableElement(eeh, *pTable);
 IAnnotationHandlerP annoHandler = dynamic_cast<IAnnotationHandlerP>(&eeh.GetHandler());
 annoHandler->AddAnnotationScale(eeh, ISessionMgr::GetActiveDgnModelP());
 eeh.AddToModel();
 }
