Identical layered spans not merging in curation mode

Open lucasaubertin opened this issue 4 weeks ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug Alright, this one might be attributed to my specific circumvention/bypass to link together spans that should be in different categories.

What is happening? I have "Merge completely agreeing non-stacked annotations" selected. When doing curation, agreed annotations are not merged.

Actual behavior:

Expected automatic behavior (currently done manually by clicking on the purple tag "TEMPS [1.00]"):

Proof of agreement (two annotators) and tag selected from the tagset linked to the layer:

Moreover the software indicates the following when opening the document to curate:

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Have the default custom.Span (internal name) (custom named UNK_span)
  2. Add a feature "string" called SuperLayer that contains a tagset (SuperType) with 2 labels (Event/Entites)
  3. In custom.Span, add another string feature called (Internal Name:) EntitesLayer calling the "Entites" tagset (where "TEMPS" is from)
  4. Have a constraint rule that only displays the Entites tagset if "Entites" is selected from the SuperLayer (SuperLayer = "Entité" -> EntitesLayer = "TEMPS")
  5. Annotate with multiple users
  6. Go to curation of the document (settings: Curation page type - "Integrated view")
  7. Observe the unmerged spans
