The Text Annotation Interface in Ango Hub

How to Annotate Text

From the Tools panel on the left sidebar, select an Entity labeling tool, marked with an underlined A. (If none are present, only answer the questions in the Questions panel.)

With the Entity tool selected, click and drag on text to highlight the text you’d like to label.

If the labels have nested questions, select a label by clicking on it, then right-click on each label and click on the menu item that appears to see and answer the nested questions.

If classification questions are present, you may answer them from the Questions panel on the left sidebar.

Editing Text Annotations

After selecting a label by clicking on it, hover over one of the edges of the annotation until your cursor turns into an arrow. Click and drag the annotation to where you'd like it to start or end.
