'The Swedish National Archives makes one million handwritten documents searchable' https://riksarkivet.se/inlagg/riksarkivet-gor-en-miljon-handskrivna-dokument-sokbara - the Universal Viewer plus AI text transcription!
Congratulations to everyone at the Riksarkivet who worked so hard on this! #AI4LAM #UniversalViewer

Initially, I was using #Tify, which looks nice and was easy enough. But it doesn’t seem to support continuous display. I tried #UV #UniversalViewer as well, but it also seems to ignore the behavior. #Mirador, otoh, actually does what I want (yay!), but it feel more like embedding an application into my page rather than a simple viewer component (and it ignores sizing of the container).

A question for people who've implemented the IIIF Universal Viewer - how much did you change the default look and feel? e.g. colours / typography, layout of elements, other config options? And more to the point, why?
We've been wondering why people change the default as a way into understanding what people need the UV to do in their context

UV IIIF transcription search design - inspiration needed!
Have you seen any notable versions of IIIF viewers that display and / or search transcribed (or translated, etc) text? We're looking for examples to take into a mini-working session with the Swedish Riksarkivet https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1wtOvvhv1P1XNYdF2yj7k6OZ5vNcfNcWu/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=106064767342711327996&rtpof=true&sd=true
Please share links and thoughts below, or add a screenshot and notes to a new slide on the doc above #IIIF #UniversalViewer #UV #MuseTech

I asked if there were other cool things they've seen that have been made possible from #iiif interoperability with Universal Viewer with an example of combining the display of oral histories with archival photos. Digital Exhibitions have been the main use so far. #mac24 #s402 #archives #UniversalViewer #DigitalLibrary

Doing tech support for one of my favourite octogenarians this morning made me realise that all that debate about 'which icon should we use for download on the 'Universal' IIIF Viewer' was solving the wrong problem.
It should have been 'how do we include text labels so that people know what functions are available'. Text doesn't solve everything but it helps
