58 | | - <p>The left sidebar provides two complementary ways to navigate your data: by document hierarchy and by class.</p> |
| 58 | + <h2 id="document-tree">Left sidebar</h2> |
| 59 | + <p>The left sidebar is the main way to navigate your data. At the top, the <dfn>search box</dfn> finds resources within the current application that have the specified keyword in their titles, descriptions etc.; results are shown in a dropdown list. Below the search box, the sidebar offers complementary ways to browse the dataspace — by document hierarchy, by class, and through a few other data-driven views.</p> |
59 | 60 | <h3 id="document-hierarchy">Document hierarchy navigation</h3> |
60 | 61 | <p>Document tree shows the document hierarchy of the dataspace. By clicking on a container, it expands to show its children.</p> |
61 | 62 | <p>In a desktop layout mode, the document tree folds out when the mouse is moved to the left edge of the screen. In a responsive layout, it is always shown.</p> |
62 | 63 | <h3 id="class-navigation">Class-based navigation</h3> |
63 | | - <p>In addition to browsing by document hierarchy, you can navigate your data by class. The class tree displays all classes defined in your |
64 | | - application's ontology, organized by their <code>rdfs:subClassOf</code> relationships. Clicking on a class in the tree shows all instances |
65 | | - of that class in your dataspace.</p> |
| 64 | + <p>In addition to browsing by document hierarchy, you can navigate your data by class. The <dfn>Classes</dfn> list shows the classes (<code>rdf:type</code> values) that actually occur in the dataspace, each labelled with the number of its instances and ordered with the most-used classes first. Clicking a class opens a dialog listing all instances of that class across the dataspace.</p> |
66 | 65 | <p>Class-based navigation is particularly useful when:</p> |
67 | 66 | <ul> |
68 | 67 | <li>You want to see all instances of a particular type across your entire dataspace</li> |
69 | 68 | <li>You need to browse data organized by domain concepts rather than container structure</li> |
70 | | - <li>You're working with data that has rich class hierarchies</li> |
71 | 69 | </ul> |
72 | | - <p>The class tree respects your <a href="../administration/acl/">access control</a> settings — you'll only see classes and instances you're authorized to access.</p> |
73 | | - <h3 id="system-containers">System containers</h3> |
74 | | - <p>The document tree also provides shortcuts to <a href="../data-model/documents/#hierarchy">system containers</a>:</p> |
| 70 | + <p>Because the list is derived from the data itself, it reflects whatever types are present — you do not need to define an ontology or class hierarchy. It also respects your <a href="../administration/acl/">access control</a> settings: you only see classes and instances you are authorized to access.</p> |
| 71 | + <h3 id="other-views">Other views</h3> |
| 72 | + <p>Below the classes, the sidebar provides a couple of additional data-driven views of the dataspace:</p> |
75 | 73 | <dl> |
76 | | - <dt>Latest</dt> |
77 | | - <dd>A container with the latest resources in the application's dataset by creation/modification date</dd> |
78 | | - <dt>Files</dt> |
79 | | - <dd>A container for <a href="../../user-guide/upload-file/">file uploads</a></dd> |
80 | | - <dt>Imports</dt> |
81 | | - <dd>A container for <a href="../imports/">data imports</a></dd> |
82 | | - <dt>Queries</dt> |
83 | | - <dd>A container for end-user SPARQL queries (including <a href="../imports/csv/#vocabulary-conversion">vocabulary |
84 | | - mappings</a>)</dd> |
85 | 74 | <dt>Geo</dt> |
86 | | - <dd>A container with all resources in the application's dataset that have geographic coordinates</dd> |
87 | | - <dt>Charts</dt> |
88 | | - <dd>A container with charts that visualize SPARQL query results</dd> |
| 75 | + <dd>Opens a dialog listing all resources in the dataspace that have geographic coordinates.</dd> |
| 76 | + <dt>Latest</dt> |
| 77 | + <dd>Opens a dialog listing the most recently created resources in the dataspace, newest first.</dd> |
| 78 | + </dl> |
| 79 | + </div> |
| 80 | + <div> |
| 81 | + <h2 id="right-nav">Right sidebar</h2> |
| 82 | + <p>A right sidebar appears alongside the main view to show navigation into and out of the current data:</p> |
| 83 | + <dl> |
| 84 | + <dt>Backlinks</dt> |
| 85 | + <dd>In <a href="#layout-modes">properties mode</a>, lists resources that link <em>to</em> a resource in the current document — that is, resources that have a property whose value is the current resource. This complements the outgoing properties shown in the main view.</dd> |
| 86 | + <dt>Related results</dt> |
| 87 | + <dd>For <a href="../data-model/resources/views/#parallax">view</a> result sets, <dfn>parallax</dfn> navigation lets you jump from the current results to a related set by following a selected property (for example, from a set of products to the companies that supply them). It works together with the view's faceted search.</dd> |
