Can it support visually annotate constituency Penn Treebank?

[fishfree]

I upload the example file frog-deep-upgraded.2.0.2.folia.xml to FLAT. Then turn on Global annotations-> Chunk, it shows constituencies very similar to PennTreebank as below:

So can it support VISUALLY (drag & select, NOT click & input) annotate constituency Penn Treebank? What configurations tasks should be prepared firstly?

I should post in the FLAT repo.

No, FLAT is generally click & input, there are no drag operations. Multiple tokens can be selected though for multi-span annotations.

@proycon Thank you! Would you pls tell how to make multi-span annotations? I can not find it in the official doc.

It's explained in this section: https://flat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide.html#annotation-editor , using the "select span" button. Note that it only works when the FoLiA document is tokenised (has elements) and only for span annotation types like entities.
