With this release, we gave our navigation panel a brand new look, introduced new features to the Video Editors and Document Editors, and added new functionalities in our SDK. Let’s dig in!

Navigation panel redesign

The navigation panel’s new look is like a breath of fresh air. Not only did we improve the UI, but we also tweaked some functionalities.

To see the list of teams, click the drop-down menu in the top left corner. In this list, you can see all the teams and create a new team.

To create a team:

  1. In the top left corner, click the drop-down menu.
  2. Click Create Team.
  3. Type your team's name and description. Both fields are mandatory.
  4. Click Save.

Or you can do it the old way

  1. In the navigation panel, click Team Settings.
  2. Click the + button.
  3. Type your team's name and description. Both fields are mandatory.
  4. Click Save.

Attributes in Document Projects

Now you can add attributes in Document Projects just like you do in other project types. Learn more.

There are two ways you can assign an attribute to an instance in the Document Editor.

*Method 1:

  1. Right click on a selected text.
  2. Choose a class from the drop-down menu.
  3. Expand the class.
  4. Click Select an attribute.
  5. Choose an attribute or multiple attributes.

Method 2: (if the instance has a class)

  1. Find the instance in the right panel.
  2. Expand it.
  3. Choose an attribute or multiple attributes from the drop-down menu.

New features in the Video Editor

Undo/Redo - Mute/Unmute

Now you can undo and redo actions in the Video Editor as well as mute and unmute videos.

Video sound

Previously, audio files couldn’t be uploaded, meaning you could upload videos but you couldn’t hear any sound. Now you can upload a video with its audio files.

SDK functionalities

Now you can upload all types of annotations with the JSON structure in the SuperAnnotate format. Previously, you could upload image annotations only.

To upload a folder of annotations:

sa.upload_annotations_from_folder_to_project(
    project = "Project Name",
    folder_path = "./data/annotations")

Learn more about uploading annotations.
