How to make Author's mode component annotations visible in AEM5.6.1?

Avatar

Level 3

In AEM 5.6.1, if I added annotation to the component it works just fine while I'm editing the page, but disappears after page is reloaded.

enter image description here

There is no difference if it is custom or out-of-the-box component, if page was activated or not, annotation is just not loading.

CRXDE Lite shows that cq:annotations node has been successfully created with all required subnodes

enter image description here

Is there any configuration switch which should be turned on in order to make annotations visible?

Are you switching to mode other than author. If yes, it wont work

Annotation is available in author mode only.

No, I'm not switching modes. It's just if page is reloaded (staying in the same mode)- annotations do not appear anymore. And they are not available to any other user loading the same page (which is the point of annotations)
