Add ability to create new link annotations from a subset of search results in a document

          Details

            Description

            Need the ability to generate multiple new link annotations for a user-selected sub-set (or complete set) of results matching a text search.

            This would be special variant of the standard text-search panel. Users would begin by performing a standard text search. Once the results were displayed they could select/deselect individual matches (or select deselect all matches at once). Each match from the selected search result subset would then have a new link annotation created for it, based on a single set of link annotation properties specified by the user (they would all have the same attributes).

            The thinking is that a wizard UI model would work well for this:
            1. Search
            2. Select matches to create annotations for.
            3. Enter annotation attributes for all selected matches.
            4. Create annotations.

A null pointer was occuring when using the annotation manipulator calls whith out a gui. The gui initialized the page for use and as a result haddent seen this until the example was created.

              The twoexample has been created and I must say is pretty slick. Here are a couple important notes about the demos, this is also in the class javadoc.

              new example is located in ./examples/annotation/NewAnnotationPrePageLoad.java

              • example show how to build a new annotation out of search results word bounds and the addition of an annotation action, URI or Goto.
              • This example code is meant for non visual annotation creation and runs before the view is created. .
