Last change on this file since 7007 was 7007, checked in by kjdon, 20 years ago

made some modifications to the gli help to remove the hunting and mirroring panes. this meant that some strings needed to be changed - I have changed the english ones, and put placeholders in the other langs for them - hopefully someone can translate them :-)

81To add a classifier, select it using the "Select classifier to add" pull-down list near the
82bottom and then click "Add Specified Classifier". A window appears entitled
83"Configuring Arguments"; instructions for this dialog are just the same as for
84plugins (see <a href="plugins.htm#plugins">Document Plugins</a>). Once you have configured the new
85classifier, it is added to the end of the "Currently Assigned Classifiers"
86list.
87<p></p>
88To remove a classifier, select it from the list and click "Remove Selected
89Classifier".
90<p></p>
91To change the arguments a classifier, select it from the list and click
92"Configure Selected Classifier" (or double-click on the classifier in the
93list).
94<p></p>
95The ordering of classifiers in the collection's navigation bar is reflected in
96their order here. To change it, select the classifier you want to move and
97click "Move To Top", "Move Up", "Move Down", or "Move To Bottom".

104The CustomAZList classifier is a special classifier that builds an alphabetical
105selection list ("AZList") and allows you to specify the letter ranges. This
106classifier has its own configuration dialogue. When a metadata element is
107selected, the "Ranges" tree automatically becomes populated with appropriate
108values. Expand or collapse the tree as desired. Select any two values and
109click "Merge" to specify a range, or select a previously merged value and click
110"Split" to restore the values contained within. When satisfied with the ranges,
111click "OK" to begin processing the documents in the collection. You can
112"Cancel" the dialog without making any changes to the collection.
