Annotated Inset Graphs

I am trying to have a subwindow graph with annotations. Whenever I add my graph, all annotation is stripped. Is this normal behavior? What is a solution to accomplishing my goal? Layouts are proving tricky for me because I am unable to scale my graphs correctly for reasons that are beyond me (i.e. text and markers are staying the same size).
You have not provided enough detail.

I'm not sure what you mean by "add my graph". There are several ways to add a graph. You can add it to the layout layer or, as an embedded subwindow, to the drawing layer.

I'm also not sure what you mean by "all annotations is stripped". Do you mean annotations in the layout layer or in the embedded graph. In either case, annotations should not disappear.

To get the best answer, provide a step-by-step recipe to reproduce the problem or attach a simplified experiment that shows the problem along with an explanation of what you want.

Whether the graph is in the layout layer or is an embedded subwindow in the drawing layer, markers and text, by default, are auto-sized based on the size of the graph. If you specify a fixed size, then that fixed size is used regardless of the size of the graph.
