Everything I\u2019ve found so far uses drag\u2011and\u2011drop, which feels very inefficient for what I need.<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, the tool should support most of the following features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Multiple selections per image<\/strong> with persistent IDs<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skipping occluded or hard\u2011to\u2011see keypoints<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>(Less important) <strong>keypoint state annotations<\/strong> (e.g., occluded, blurry, visible)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bounding box annotations<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Does anyone know of a tool that works like this, or any keypoint labeling tool with a faster workflow than drag\u2011and\u2011drop?
