Click annotations stay when trace is hidden, and can't be removed without restoring trace.

You can see the effect in these examples:

It makes sense that when you hide a trace, the annotations should hide as well. A prime example is one I'm doing right now where my popup click annotations cover a trace behind it. I should be able to hide the trace with the annotations briefly to look at the data behind, and then restore the trace with the pickets still there.

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree, in this particular example the legend should toggle both traces and annotations. In more technical terms, each annotation is linked to a trace. Unfortunately, there is not the case in general and exposing an API to link components to traces isn't in our short-term plans.

In the meantime, here's a hacky solution: http://codepen.io/etpinard/pen/ZWdjNy

Hmmm. Trying to use this for professional presentations. I think a better hacky solution would be to capture the hide event, store the annotation data somewhere, then capture the show event and restore it.

Say, I think I saw somewhere that you are collecting feedback for 2.0. Can you direct me to that?
