Annotations tab overview
When you click an annotation file, ( <name>.<type>.annotations.eaf), the tab at the bottom portion of the right pane is named Annotations.
It displays a grid of rows and columns, and various controls.
-
Rows: Each row is a segment. Each one can display a play/pause button (/). If you hover your mouse pointer over the button you see pop-up tool-tip with information about that segment.
-
Columns: There is a Transcription column and Free Translation column. You type the transcription and translation for the segment in them. Each column has an Options down arrow () so you can choose which recording you want to hear, or to change the font for the column.
-
Controls allow you to do the following:
-
-
Work with annotations - listen to individual audio segments in SayMore, and then type or edit a transcription or translation (of the transcription) for each segment.
-
Export the annotations in various file formats.

Playback Speed allows you to reduce the rate that the audio file is played. You can select a percentage of the normal speed, which is 100%.

You can open the file again in ELAN, and work with the annotations there.

To listen to the entire audio file, you can click the file, and then play it in the Audio tab.
