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.

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