Result Tree View

By using the Result Tree View, you can view results in a tree format.

Color highlighting

Each attribute that is displayed in the Result Tree View is highlighted in a different color on the tree. By selecting an element of the tree, you highlight the attribute values in the input document with the same color. You can then visualize multiple selected results in the input document.

By selecting a parent element of the tree view, you select all of its children. By clearing an element, you remove its highlighting as well as the highlighting of its child elements from the document.

Overlapping attributes

Overlapping values are highlighted with the color that corresponds to the largest value in the lexicographic order of node names in the Result Tree View. For example, assume that a view, MyView, contains two attributes, X and Y. If both elements are selected in the tree, the color that is used for highlighting a MyView.X value that overlaps with a MyView.Y value is the color that is used for MyView.Y, since MyView.Y appears after MyView.X in the lexicographic order.

Notes

Attribute values of any type other than span are not listed on the Result tree view.
Attribute values of types other than span can be generated by the AQL code in the extractor, but because they cannot be highlighted, they are not listed on the Result Tree View.
Attributes of type span that are on the same text object as the attribute of the selected row in the Annotation Explorer are displayed in the Result tree view.
When the Result Tree View is started by selecting a span value in the Annotation Explorer, the Result Tree View is loaded with the text that underlies the selected span value. Text can be either the original document text or text that is derived from the original text, for example by using the detag statement. In this case, the Result Tree View lists only span values with the same underlying text as that of the selected span.

Actions that are available from the Result Editor toolbar

Show All Documents that are Annotated
Click to see all documents that your extractor annotated.
Show All Documents with Selected Annotations
Click to see all documents that have annotations that match the annotation types that you selected in the Result Tree View.
Previous Annotation in this Document
Click to highlight the previous annotation in the Result Editor.
Next Annotation in this Document
Click to highlight the next annotation.
Show Previous Document that is Annotated
Click to see the document that was annotated before the current one.
Show Previous Document with Selected Annotation
Click to see the document that was annotated before the current one that has annotations that match the annotation types you selected in the Result Tree.
Show Next Document that is Annotated
Click to see the document that was annotated after the current one.
Show Next Document with Selected Annotation
Click to see the document that was annotated after the current one that has annotations that match the annotation types you selected in the Result Tree.
Go to Document
Click this menu and select the document that you want displayed.
Note: In Eclipse version 4.2.2, the Go to Document option is not available on the Result Tree View toolbar. You can select the particular row in Annotation Explorer to go to the specific document that you want to display.

Type ahead filter

Enter the text pattern that you want to match. The Result Tree is filtered to display only the annotation types that contain the text pattern.

Result Tree view allows you to navigate to the view definition

Right-click a Tree node in the Result Tree View, and select Show view in AQL Editor. The corresponding View Definition opens in the AQL editor.
