Exporting multiple observations to Praat TextGrids leads to empty files #983

Description

@Uhumimik

Hello,

When I try to export multiple observations to Praat TextGrids at once, some of the files are empty even though there were annotations in BORIS.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Go to 'Observations' > 'Export events' > 'as Praat TextGrid'
  2. Click on 'Select all'
  3. Click on 'OK'
  4. Specify 'Subjects', 'Behaviors' and 'Time interval' as needed
  5. Click on 'OK'
  6. Specify where the files should be saved
  7. Click on 'Select folder'
  8. Wait until the export is finished
  9. Click on 'OK'
  10. Go to the previously selected folder

Expected behavior
All files should be successfully exported to Praat TextGrids.

Observed behavior
Some of the files only have a files size of 1KB and are empty. There are no tiers with intervals and annotations in the TextGrid even though the file was annotated in BORIS.

System information:

  • OS: Windows 11
  • BORIS installation: setup with v9.12.4
