Hi, am I blind?

I cannot find a way to see the messages/annotations of my tags in the "Log Messages" window (opened with right click "Show log").
I understand and see that the tags with annoations have an apex at the right side as described here:

But next to these tags I only see the message of the last commit prior to the respective tag.
The search filter apparently works and scans my tag messages,
but is there no way of actually viewing the tag annoations in the tortoisegit GUI?

Thanks!

The tag annotations are appeneded to and displayed in the message field.

Thanks for you answer, but what you mean is for me just the message of the last commit prior to the tag, but not the annotation of the tag itself.

I guess this is just not possible in TortoiseGit so I have to use the console command:

git tag -l --format='%(contents)'
