TEI-Facsimile-Plugin

A plugin that provides support for working with Digital Facsimiles in Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) vocabulary. The plugin contributes a new View in which the user can load an image and draw shapes. These shapes are then converted into TEI "zone" elements. All the existing "zone" elements from the document are also rendered over the image.

How to install it

1. Unzip builds/addon/image-markup-plugin-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-plugin.zip inside {OxygenInstallDir}/plugins/. Please make sure you are not creating any additional directories. After unziping, the directory structure should look like this:

   plugins --image-markup-plugin-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-plugin ---lib ---plugin.xml

2. The plugin is also packed as an add-on so you can install it using the Oxygen add-ons support. Depending on the Oxygen version you are using, the procedure might differ but the update site where this add-on is published is this:

addon/image-markup-plugin.xml

How to quickly test it

After installing it, you should see an Image Markup Sample button on the toolbar. Click it to launch a sample file and to initialize the Image-Markup view with an image.

Supported features:

• If you place yourself in a zone element, that rectangle will be painted with a different color in the view
• If you right click on a rectangle in image view, you can either delete it (and will reflect in the editor) or copy it
• You can use the mouse to draw a new rectangle over the image. Then right click and copy its coordinates to paste them in the editor.

Known limitiations (which can be addressed with some Java skills and free time):

• All zone elements are being rendered. Ideally only the zone elements from the surface element with the loaded image should be renderered.
• New zone elements that are manually inserted in the document will not be rendered automatically. You'll have to reload the image.
