Ontology Details View - Classes, Relations and Attributes Node

Abstract

We explain here how to use the ontology details view of the Classes, Relations and Attributes node.

You can access the Details View of the Classes, Relations and Attributes node using the Ontology Management.

The Details View for Core Ontologies and Custom Ontologies is basically the same. Except that core ontologies cannot be modified or extended. To access the details view:

Open the Ontology Management by clicking its icon in the toolbar.
Find the Core Ontologies or Custom Ontologies node inside the Ontologies node. Expand it to display all ontology nodes.
Expand the respective ontology node you want to see in more detail.
Select the Classes, Relations or Attributes node.
In the Details View on the right, you see one of the following buttons, depending on the node you selected:
- Create Class (Create Relation or Create Attribute)
  Allows you to create a new class, relation or attribute. This option is only available for custom ontologies.
- The table lists all classes, relations and attributes with their respective definition. You can sort the table by each column header.
- At the right of the table you have the following options:
  - Delete icon
    Allows you to delete the class, relation or attribute. This option is only available for custom ontologies.
  - Add icon
    Allows you to add the class, relation or attribute to an existing custom scheme.

You can also expand the Class view to see the various relationships for that particular class.
