Argument continuation #29

Closed ar-jan closed 1 year ago

A boolean field which indicates that a text selection belongs to the annotation started on a preceding page.

If checked, the rest of the form should be disabled.

To make this work there has to be a way to automatically detect the preceding annotation. If not, the preceding annotation will have to be entered manually.

Further question: should we support annotations that run over more than two pages?

ar-jan commented 1 year ago

I think there's no need to group multi-page annotations within the Zotero addon itself, as long as we can detect consecutive annotations later on. The goal would be to disable the form, and the flag itself should allow us to combine consecutive annotations later on in the separate website/database. Selections of more than 2 pages should then be fine as well.

The requirements are then 1) Ability to see the order of annotations within a document and within a page (I think we have that with page number and page coordinates), and 2) We only support consecutive text selections, there can not be any annotation of another diagnostic in between.
