New Annotation - creates a new row in the spreadsheet for an annotation. When creating a new annotation row, the cursor will be placed in the first data entry field.
Copy Annotation - the currently selected row(s) will be duplicated and placed at the end of the spreadsheet. This action can be reversed with the 'undo' command.
Delete Annotation - the currently selected row(s) will be deleted. This action can be reversed with the 'undo' command.
Bulk Editing - if more than one row is selected, then any copy, delete, or edit function will be performed on all selected rows. All bulk edits can be undone.
One or more rows can be selected for editing operations, including copy, delete, and bulk edit.
You can select one row by clicking the mouse, and the selected row will be highlighted.
More than one contiguous row can be selected by clicking and dragging or shift-clicking.
Currently, non-contiguous rows cannot be selected for editing operations.
When multiple rows are selected, edits made in the data entry frame will affect all selected rows.
You can enter any new text into a free-text field. This will overwrite any previously entered text in the selected annotation rows.
You can select an ontology term for any field similar to selection for a single annotation (see Entering data into Ontology Fields). The change will be reflected in all rows. If any ontology terms were previously entered into any of the selected rows, they will be overwritten.
