Yes, the change was released. A circle annotation is used if the user taps without any movement. If you press down and slightly move your finger or stylus, then this will be treated as a normal freeform drawing, and the freeform drawing tool will just group together what you drew with the other content, as it's all considered one annotation until you switch tools. Looking at your screenshot, those aren't just single dots. So it looks like much of that has been joined together into one single freeform annotation. I just opened a score, drew content that matches your screenshot, but I performed single taps for dots. When I drew a selection rectangle around the whole thing, each individual dot was selected, because it was a separate circle annotation.
