deleting multiple annotations

Posted by DanielK at 2009-02-25 15:24  

For the purposes of merging transcriptions with collaborators, it would be very helpful to be able to delete multiple annotations at once since each collaborator must delete the sections they are not working on before merging to avoid overwriting or repetition of the annotation value. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks again for an excellent program,
Dan

This is currently not possible, but it is (high) on the to-do list. It might be something similar to the different "Shift Annotations" options that recently have been added. So, "Delete all annotation on the active tier within the selected segment", "Delete all annotations on the active tier (or all tiers) left/right of the media crosshair" etc. Finally, we might implement "multiple annotation selection" by mouse clicks and allow them to be deleted. This is not yet clear.
So, it is planned; but no promises that this will be realized before the next release.
