Thesaurus
Via the button Terms in the specific search form or when assigning key words, the thesaurus window appears.Each WebGenesis customization has its own specific thesaurus (or none). However, the following options are generally provided:
Surfing in the context scroll area of the Thesaurus
The context scroll area is separated into three fields in the
upper part of the thesaurus window. Selecting a term in any of the three
fields opens the sub terms in a field to the right of where you made your
selection.
If a term in the rightmost field is selected, all fields will scroll to the
left, so a new field appears showing the sub terms of the selected term.
The scroll buttons located on the right frame border can be used to
scroll the context fields to the left (towards the main term) or to
the right (towards the sub-term).
Under the actual scroll area you can find the field selected key
word. Here the context of the selected key word is shown.
Search for key words in the thesaurus
You can find terms in the thesaurus by entering a character string in the field Search in thesaurus and clicking the search button. The search results are listed in the pull down menu on the right.
Note:
Be careful not to use wildcards (*, %, etc.) as these are interpreted as
normal characters.
When selecting a key word in the pull down list, the chain of terms and sub-terms is shown in the field selected key word. The upper context scroll area shows the corresponding context.
