vars-annotation 1.5.0

This release replaces the main table component that has been plaguing VARS with bugs. In addition, there was bug hunt to identify and squash bugs that may have been previously undetected. I also added some changes to working with localizations on concurrent videos. Also, this release includes new timeline component.

Localization changes:

If you have show concurrent annotations checked, some of these annotation may have localizations. However, the video they are attached to may have a different starting time and/or dimensions (width, height) than the video you have opened in VARS. If that's the case, those annotation will not be displayed in Sharktopoda and will not be editable unless you open the video that they are attached to.

Timeline

• The timeline shows the timeline of the video in minutes
• Each letter represents an annotation with a line connecting it to where the annotation occurs in the videos timeline
• Hovering over a letter shows the full concept of the annotation.
• Each letter is color-coded by its concept. So letters of the same color are the same concept.
• Clicking on a letter selects it in the annotation table
• Double-clicking on a letter seeks to that moment in the video.
