             Summary: TextMarker: Add option for greedy anchoring
                 Key: UIMA-2768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2768
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: TextMarker
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0TextMarker
            Reporter: Peter Klügl
            Assignee: Peter Klügl
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.1TextMarker


Ignore the anchor for the start of a rule match if a previous match of this same rule already covered that position.

{noformat}
CW{-> MARK(Type,1,2)} ANY+;
{noformat}

can be used instead of

{noformat}
CW{-PARTOF(Type) -> MARK(Type,1,2)} ANY+;
{noformat}

in order to get only one annotation. The user should be able to modify the matching behavior similar to dynamic anchoring, e.g., activating the option by an action.
