One cannot have two files open at the same time. One a second file is opened, the first file disappears.

Sometimes when I save a file, and there is an error, this appears in the black window (Verknüpfung), but if one not notices, then it's easy to close a file and lose all changes one has made. i.e. the changes are not saved if there is an error.

Also, in general, when closing there is no prompt 'Do you want to save your changes?'

When opening files the user interface doesn't react anymore. Bigger files can take some time to load. It would be nice to have a progress bar when opening files.

When the same files are added twice to the Analyzer then it should do nothing (or ask to reload them).

At the moment the files are just loaded again (?).

I have just installed the editor and the analyzer on a windows 64 bit system, but it seems there is now no search function in the editor, and we cannot get the analyzer to run searches on existing files?

Some of our sentences have several clauses, and when we insert them into the program, we want to separate the clauses in several columns, and then have the words of each clause under them. When we try to insert a column manually in the Clause Unit line, we get something like this:

https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=396715E44687F585!50273

The words do not go below the respective clause. Is there a way to separate the clauses, so that the corresponding words go beneath each clause?

Poio doesn't start if not installed under "c:\program*". Remove the path name check, add a file like "installed.txt" on Windows instead, so that the software can check for the file whether it is installed.

Dear Mr Bouda,
after testing the Analyzer 1.1-version on .pickle-files, I've still got some suggestions for improvement to make.

On Poio GRAID:

• possibility to join two .pickle-files together
• possibility to import annotation lines into an existing .pickle-file (e.g. 'translation')
• easier way to split annotation blocks (i.e. automatized splitting, upkeeping the formatting; until now a new annotation block has to be configured manually)

On Poio Analyzer 1.1:

• search and replace function
• extended search and replace function: e.g. search for string xyz in tier A and paste string abc into the corresponding tier B, for example to gloss frequent single words
• exportability: e.g. possibility to save searching results as new .pickle-files (until now only html-files are possible)
• 'print' function

Yours sincerely,
Sarah Liebner

The user should be able to activate and de-activate certain tier hierarchies in the corpus files. This choice should then change the input fields for search.

At the moment, the first tier hierarchy is chosen automatically.

It's possible to erase one of the labels (Utterance, Clause Unit etc.) by mistake, but once that is done it's impossible to put it back.

There should be an option to choose a different "data type" for the annotations. The problem is that if we still use the annotation tree and pickle file the files won't ve interchangeable. Maybe wait until we have GrAF ready?

See PyAnnotation and Poio API.

It takes 2-3 minutes to open a file of about 100 sentences. It also takes a relatively long time to save (20 secs for a file of 600 clauses).

Sometimes when I want to add a column in the first clause of a sentence, the column is added to the the very first column instead (the heading column), where the WORD and WFW headings in grey are situated, and it splits this column up, and then it is impossible to remove it again.
