Annotations visible during place apertures

I would like to make an annotate on an image and use it to guide me while I place apertures.  However, the annotation seems to disappear when I go to place aperture.  Is there some way to keep the annotation visible?

I have noted that place aperture may alter the visible image in an image sequence so I make sure to annotate the appropriate image.  In the Annotate menu, I have auto update annotations in FITS header checked which seems like it should be making them persist.  I also have checked Display annotations from FITS header when image is displayed.

I am working on an image sequence, but also tried this on a single image and it behaves the same way.  Another thing I tried was to open a single image, annotate it and save it.  When I reopened it the annotate was display, but again disappeared when I went to place apertures.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
