[Corpora-List] brat rapid annotation tool v1.1p1 (Albatross) release announcement

[Emad Mohamed]

Hello All Corpora members,
I sent this question to Pontus Stenetorp, but got no reply. Maybe one of
you can help.

Hello Pontus,
We have started using your brat annotation tool here , and it's working
great. We do, however, have one issue with the right to left display in
Arabic. While Arabic goes from right to left, I cannot find a way
to accommodate the tags that have to go from left to right.  Is there some
way to get that fixed?



We appreciate your effort, and await your answer.

Best,
