spancat visualiser and html

[goonhoon]

Hi,

I see that in the displaCy html the whole html gets rendered under one < div > and multiple < span > tags for each annotated span like this:

<span style="font-weight: bold; display: inline-block; position: relative; height: 60px;">
    BRANDING
    
<span style="background: #ddd; top: 40px; height: 4px; left: -1px; width: calc(100% + 2px); position: absolute;">
</span>

    
</span>

<span style="font-weight: bold; display: inline-block; position: relative; height: 60px;">
    AND
    
<span style="background: #ddd; top: 40px; height: 4px; left: -1px; width: calc(100% + 2px); position: absolute;">
</span>

    
</span>

<span style="font-weight: bold; display: inline-block; position: relative; height: 60px;">

I am trying to make a simple Flask experiment and cannot figure out how to retain text markdown while applying my model and displaCy on the text.

Are there any examples of customising the displaCy render?

Many thanks,
GH
