Feature Dump for PDF Annotation

I could neither find nor come up with a workflow that seamlessly integrates the PDF annotation feature, primarily due to its rushed implementation.

Here are some of my feature requests:

  1. When adding a PDF to a source, make the REM as its parent instead of creating another REM. This should prevent the confusion of where the highlights are placed and necessary documents, covering up the front section.

  2. Keyboard shortcut for switching. Not all of the information is found within the source text. Sometimes, we have to quickly append from missing sources to paint a fuller picture of the idea that we’re learning. Having a keyboard shortcut makes that easier than having to click the button on the popup.

  3. Allow for a drag and drop upload of PDF upload. This is a game-changer, especially when you’re doing research, for going through hundreds of literature.

  4. Allow for a video upload. This is a must for students. During the pandemic, many of the lessons have shifted to online, downloadable, recorded videos. Having the ability to watch, track, and annotate the lectures is a welcomed addition.

  5. Ability to have a separate highlight view on one pane and another PDF view on a another.
