Suggesting CV entries based on the parent annotation value

The CV entries for the child annotation value can be filtered/suggested based on the parent annotation value. To enable this,a preference setting has to be enabled. By default, this preference is unselected. Edit -> Preferences -> Edit Preferences -> CV -> Suggest child annotation CV entries based on the parent annotation value

The child tier should have a tier type associated with a CV and a symbolic association stereotype. The automatically filtered/suggested values depend on the two options:

  1. Suggest CV entries based on any of the words in the parent annotation value

    If this option is selected, the suggestions are based on all individual words of the parent annotation value. The result also is in combination with Suggest Panel options selected in the CV preference.

  2. Suggest CV entries based on the exact sequence of words of the parent annotation value
