Re: Annotation layout behaviour in 6.1.0-beta

Hi Jakob,

I'm going to confirm with you in an offline note, but I'm fairly certain this was a known problem that has been fixed since the 6.1.0-beta was posted; it should be in the formal 6.1.0 release.

Thanks for taking the time to report the problem and helping to make NCL better!
