Can we load depos from other software that already have issue codes into Trial Director and have the issues transfer?
Yes depending on the application. TrialDirector integrates with other popular litigation software programs, such
as Summation iBlaze®, Summation Enterprise. In the manuals for the particular software in which you have issue coded
a transcript you will find the export section that describes the steps for exporting the transcript with its issue codes
for Trialdirector or other similar application like Sanctions.
Here is a youtube video explaining how to create "load files" and export your data and coding from a software program
called SUMMATION:
What happens if issue codes overlap?
Answer - As you can see in the example below - here I have issue coded this particular highlighted text with ALL my issue
codes and yet in the transcript only the color I am using for the last issue code I assigned to it shows up in the transcript.
But over on the left where the issue code annotation list is provided you can see that under each of the colors
the lines from page 4:15 to 5:08 are indicated for me. If you wish to have more than one color assigned to this text
you could just highlight one word in the text for each of the issue codes and multiple colors will then show up in the
transcript but then in the legend on the left you will not see the proper page and line numbers indicated.
