textAnnotator

Small and simple JS tool for making powerful underline, highlight and strike text annotations.

See live demo at the pages

Quick Examples

Annotate specific element:

var u = new tvs.Annotator();
u.underline(element1, 'solid', 'red');
u.highlight(element2, 'brush', 'green');
u.strike(element3, 'dashed', 'blue');

Annotation using attributes

<span>Examples of text
    <span data-annotate='underline squiggly red'>to be underlined</span>, 
    <span data-annotate='highlight brush green'>to be highlighted</span>,
    <span data-annotate='strike dashed blue'>to be striked</span>
</span>

Then add to code:

var u = new tvs.Annotator();
u.annotateDocument();

Custom templates:

Use JS code to add new templates:

tvs.AnnotatorDictionary.svgTemplates['custom'] = new tvs.Template(new tvs.SvgTemplatePart(
    '<line y2="3" x2="4" y1="3" x1="0" ' +
        'stroke-dasharray="2, 2" ' +
        'stroke-width="2" stroke="{0}" fill="none"/>', // svg content
    4,                                                 // width of canvas
    5,                                                 // height of canvas
    'repeat'                                           // apply method
));
