Firefox toolbar 3.1.6.13 extract annotations bug resolved

    I upgrades to the 6.13 release and was playing around with the new features. In particular I was looking at the extract annotations option that is part of the new Send button.

    Using http://www.diigo.com/annotated/7b6a0267fd0f8b1c10dd87d06b78805b as a baseline for discussion.

    I added a page comment to that article. When I use the new Extract Annotations option is shows my Page Comment inline with the rest of the Highlights. There is no indication that the comment is something that I added. I also commented on a highlight, and I do see the indication there that it is my comment.

    This is different than how extracting annotations works from the My Bookmarks screen.

    Here using the Send menu of Diigo Toolbar 3.1.6.7 in Firefox 3.0.5 on Mac OS X 10.5.6, Intel:

    Thanks ImageShack!

    - appears to me as I expect it to

    Thanks ImageShack!

    - maybe OK, Sean should judge my view of this

    Thanks ImageShack!

    - definitely bugged.

    I have neither highlighted nor commented upon http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20081218-gates-foundation-to-help-libraries-be-better-free-net-cafes.html so why should the preference -

    [√] Don't show my private highlights and sticky notes

    Thanks ImageShack!

    - make a difference to my view of the extraction?

    @ Sean

    As points of reference, please, can you confirm whether the following Diigolet 3.1b446 views of your highlights and sticky note are proper?

    Thanks ImageShack!

    Thanks ImageShack!

    Thanks ImageShack!

    Thanks ImageShack!

    Thanks ImageShack!

    TIA
    Graham

    Postscript: without breaking the tally, I added my missing screen shot of the page comment.

    To any readers who are concerned about credits:

    (Instructions for users of Firefox)

    1. Diigo Toolbar (3.1.6.13) | Send menu | Extract Annotations…

    2. without closing the 'Extract Annotations' window

    3. return to the window from which you extracted

    4. IMPORTANT: sign out from Diigo

    5. return to the 'Extract Annotations' window

    6. maximise the window

    7. single-click (follow) the primary blue link within the window

    8. click the Comment button within the Diigolet toolbar

    9. observe the anonymous (public) view of the annotations and highlights that you chose to extract

    You should find that all publicly visible highlights and annotations are credited.

    Example screen shot:

    Thanks ImageShack!

    - note, that example may differ from what Sean and others see, my example is an anonymous view of the link given in an extraction of annotations obtained by Graham Perrin viewing a selection of Sean's highlights and annotations (not obtained by Sean Brady whilst viewing his own highlights and annotations.)

    (Instructions for some users of Firefox complicated by bugs http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/extract-annotations-in-3-1-6-13-for-firefox-formatting-richness-is-lost-9245 http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/extract-annotations-in-3-1-6-13-for-firefox-impossible-to-copy-the-primary-link-9246 and/or http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/extract-annotations-in-3-1-6-13-for-firefox-primary-link-fails-to-target-new-window-9247 - sorry)

    If you find that what's visible to the public is more, or less, than you intended then please

    a) consider http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/extract-annotations-in-3-1-6-13-for-firefox-other-people-s-private-highlights-not-mine-are-hidden-on-demand-9243

    b) if necessary, create a separate topic within this forum.

    Regards
    Graham

    Postscript: added screen shot.
