Annotation panel
Since Images are displayed together with Shapes belonging to matching Overlays, Shapes can only be created when the Image is active. By default, when the Image and Overlay names match, the corresponding Overlay and Layer are automatically created when the first Shape is added to the Image. If a different Overlay and Layer are selected, the Shape will be added to the selected ones.
