That sounds like one more good reason to do that. Another one I thought of is that it is confusing when you add an annotation which you cannot
see afterward.

So lets open a jira and do this enhancement.

Here is the jira:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2137


This jira is now fixed.

At least on my system (Eclipse Helios on Ubuntu 10.10) the Shift+Enter
shortcut does not work, and will be treated as an unmodified Enter,
i.e. no selection list appears. I haven't tried yet on other systems
because I need to install the updated plugins first.

Ok, I will investigate that. But then this was not the system where you
experienced the hang issue in the 2.3.1 version?

As you said, the freeze was due to the shortcut creation when the type system is too big, and it ocurred on all machines.

I sometimes have to press return twice to get a "quick annotation", too, and on a different machine (Eclipse Helios on Windows XP) it worked even less, to the point that I had to use the context menu.

I opened a jira for the short cut issue and fixed it, would be nice if you could test. I believe the issue is related to a recently defined command and key binding in the plugin.xml. I also now did this for the quick type selection dialog short cut.

Here is the jira:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2139

On that machine the "edit view" was having problems, too, and I usually had to click on the feature name before being able to activate the feature value field. I haven't tried Shift+Enter on that machine.

Did you run the current trunk on that machine? If so would be nice if you can give me further details about the edit view issues. What type had the feature you clicked on? Are there exceptions in the error log?

Do you also need to fill in feature values for each created annotation?

Yes, for many of them we do. Which brings me to another thing that
would be interesting for us: having preset feature values filled in
automatically. We would be using that to automatically fill in the
annotator's name on all annotations created by them.

This you can easily do when you pre-process the files you pass to the
annoator, or post-process when he gives them back.

I've been thinking about that option. It would be quite easy at the document level, but becomes a bit more complicated when each annotation can come from a different annotator and files get passed from one annotator to the next.

For one project I created a small plugin which just defined a view for something similar. Its actual not difficult to access the CAS and updates to it through the Annotation Editor.
