Import
In Viewer Mode annotations can be imported into the QuickAnnotation module by selecting Import annotations from the file menu.
As of 2018-08-02 only CSV files of the following specific format can be imported, however this may change in the future.
CSV format for importing QuickAnnotations
The file format for importing QuickAnnotations is headerless CSV with a comma for the field-delimiter and no quote character for strings.
One annotation should be listed per row, and each row should have seven columns (six commas). Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required and cannot be blank/null. The fields for each row should be:
UTC, Channel, Duration, LowFreq, HighFreq, Label, Note
*UTC should be a number in the same format as java.lang.System.currentTimeMillis(), i.e. the difference, measured in milliseconds, between the current time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC(coordinated universal time).
*Channel is the channel number for the annotation, and is one-indexed.
*Duration is the duration, in seconds.
*LowFreq and HighFreq are the lower and upper frequency bounds in Hz.
Label is a string (without commas) containing the user-designated label for the annotation.
Note is a string (without commas) containing the user-designated notes for the annotation.
