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 :-)

52The Create view is used to create the collection by running Greenstone
53collection-building scripts on the information you have provided. This is
54generally straightforward: just click "Build Collection" at the bottom of the
55screen. However, the building process can be customized. You can also use
56this view to review details of previous attempts to build this collection,
57whether successful or not.
58<p></p>
59The buttons for building and cancelling the building process are at the bottom.
60Above appears a group of controls titled "Collection Import &amp; Build Options".
61To the left is a list of three items, and to the right is a pane that reflects
62the currently chosen item in the list, as described in the following sections.
63<p></p>
64Clicking "Build Collection" initiates the collection building process. The time
65this takes depends on the size of the collection and the number of indexes
66being created (for huge collections it can be hours). To cancel the process at
67any time, click "Cancel Build".

70Once the collection has successfully built, clicking "Preview Collection" will launch a web browser showing the home page of the collection.
