annotations on overlay or grid

What problem do you see this solving?

I need to mark up the screen to show where elements of a comped image are and edit it as I progress - My images may have 50 elements

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

I do this every day -

Current workaround

drawing on the screen is always visableAre you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

I presently draw with a chinagraph on a sheet of acrylic taped over the screen - I know that I can layer things up in photoshop but its not instant and that I can copy annotations between layers but thats a complicated process - drawing on acrylic is instant and can be erased with a cloth -I think the obvious place for this is within the overlay tool

This is so we have a greater understanding of how your workflow is affected, and how we can improve the existing tools and functionality.

    hi Denis

    annotations are locked to a specific image
    what i need is a global annotation page that
    can float over the capture window - it would probably fit best in the Guides tool

    Hey 374107852517, maybe I missed something, but we already have a tool for creating annotations. Could you explain what exactly you want to achieve that cannot be done with the existing annotation tool?
