- <h1>Moving Annotations</h1>
-
- <p>You can move an annotation to any other part of the same document. This
- can be used, for example, to handle <a href="annotation_issues.html">orphan
- and misleading annotations</a>. You can move an annotation to either the
- current selection or to the value of a stored <span
- class="Link">XPointer</span>. It is only possible to move annotations in the
- same document where they were created.</p>
-
- <p>To move an annotation to a current selection:</p>
- <ol>
- <li>Open the <strong>Annotations</strong> menu and select <strong>Annotate
- document</strong>. The <strong>annotation</strong> window opens.</li>
- <li>Click the annotated document and select something on it.</li>
- <li>In the <strong>annotation</strong> window, choose <strong>Move to
- selection</strong> from the <strong>Annotations</strong> menu.</li>
- <li>Amaya moves the annotation icon to the text you selected and will mark
- the annotation document as modified.</li>
- </ol>
-
- <p>To make this change effective, must save the annotation or you will loose
- the change. You can also move an annotation to the current position of the
- cursor, without having to make a selection.</p>
-
- <h1>Moving Annotations to a Previously Memorized Location</h1>
-
- <p>You can store the position where you want to move an annotation to, and
- then move it there. This feature is useful for moving multiple annotations to
- the same position or for scrolling elsewhere in the document before doing the
- move.</p>
-
- <p>To move multiple annotations:</p>
- <ol>
- <li>Make a selection (or just place the cursor) in the location where you
- want to move the annotation.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>Choose <strong>Store selection as XPointer</strong> from the
- <strong>Link</strong> menu to store an XPointer representing that
- selection.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>In the <strong>Annotations</strong> window, choose <strong>Move to
- stored XPointer</strong> from the <strong>Annotations</strong>menu to
- move the annotation to its new location.
- <p></p>
- </li>
- <li>Save the annotation to make this change effective.</li>
- </ol>
