Simple annotation export

Open reckart opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The search sidebar allows to search for annotation patterns and offers a simple export of the results as CSV. However...

  • the position information is given only as document name + offsets
  • only text is included and no annotation labels

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice if there was an easy way to export all annotations of a given layer along with the labels (possibly filtered for particular labels).

Additionally, it would be nice if the position information of the annotations would be more semantic. For example, if the document contains sections such as chapters, paragraphs, lines, etc. it would be great if these could be included in the result, e.g.

document chapter paragraph text  label
mydoc 10 5 John looked to the sky and saw the light  enlightenment

Also, there should be some header which describes what is shown in the table, i.e. which layer and which feature.

It would be nice to be able to access such an export from the sidebar. Maybe a new sidebar or maybe a simple mode for the existing search sidebar could be considered where the user selects one or more layers / features and then can export them.

Describe alternatives you've considered Instead of having the layer/feature as header data, they could also be regular columns, even through every row might have the same value.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
