Description

Hey!

I think there is a minor bug in the implementation of action FILL, lines 79-86 of FillAction.java: Even when multiple annotations of the given type are found within/overlapping the range of the matched annotation, only one is modified here.

Consider the following script:

DECLARE SomeType (STRING s);
(CW W){-> SomeType, SomeType};
CW{-> FILL(SomeType, "s" = "test")}

on the the input text:

This is a test.

 Here, FILL will only assign the string value to one of the newly created SomeType annotations.

Some clarification would be great. Thanks, Michael.
