Been digging the text annotation widget!
Here’s my prioritized feedback so far if looking to make future changes.
- Ability to give tags a key.
Had to place extra hacks in my code to convert back and forth between labels and a key, including wiping all previous tags and re-creating them.
I’d like to be able to set an id or a key field for each tag (currently id field it overwritten if I use it).
Another approach is to give labels a key/display_name pair. - Notify specific changes on change.
Notifying all items on tag change is OK, but I’d prefer to get notified of what exactly changed.
I implemented a “Save tags” button since changes are pretty noisy if we don’t get notified of individual changes. - More label color schemes.
Don’t have enough time to fiddle with tag color schemes for now.
But colors currently repeat after 7 labels.
Ideally I should have more unique colors. - Seeing two sets of identical labels confusing while editing.
I keep clicking the top set of tags when changing a tag label.
What’s the purpose of putting labels at the bottom when editing a label when I can simply use the labels at the top? - Action when clicking on label.
When clicking on a tag label at the top, would be nice to be able to run an action (query/open page) or highlight/focus the tags associated with that label.
