Viewing Topics without Concepts

You can view a list of all topics in the project that do not have concepts inserted. You can then open a topic and insert concepts into it.

For more information about concepts and how they are used in projects, see the online Help in Flare.

Closedhow to view topics that do not have concepts
  1. Open a project.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Ribbon Select the View ribbon. In the Dynamic Reports section, select More Reports > Topics Without Concepts.
    • Analyzer Summary Window Pane Double-click the row that mentions topics without concepts.

    The Topics Without Concepts window pane opens, listing all topics that do not have concepts inserted into them.

  3. To see more of the information in the window pane, drag the divider bar to make the pane wider:

    • File Displays the name of the file.
    • Title Displays the properties title of the file (if any).
    • Folder Displays the folder where the file is found.

  4. If a certain number of items have been found, page navigation buttons in the local toolbar may be enabled. You can use these buttons to go to additional pages to display more items. You also have the option to view all items at once in one long list. This is called the View All option. You can toggle these views by clicking the View All/View as Pages button in the local toolbar. The button displays the opposite of whatever view is currently activated (e.g., If the View All option is currently active, the button shows View as Pages to indicate that if clicked, the button will switch the window pane to the View as Pages option).

  5. You can open a file and insert concepts into it. You can open the file in the Analyzer interface or in the Flare project.

    to open the file in the analyzer interface

    Double-click the file in the window pane. The benefit of using this method is that it is quick and convenient. You have access to the features normally available in the editor (but not necessarily to all of the features available elsewhere in Flare).

    to open the file in flare

    1. In the window pane, click on the file.
    2. Select File > Send to Flare.

    The benefit of using this method is that you have access to all of the features in the application, not just those available from the editor.
