Summary

This section displays any current issues that the project analysis module has found after scanning your project. From the Summary window pane, you can double-click any of the issue rows. Doing this opens the appropriate window pane in the interface so that you can see more information about the reported issues and take action (e.g., fix broken links).

  • Category Displays the group into which the issue fits. For example, if there is a broken link, the category is "Link." If the analysis is suggesting that you create a snippet from specific content, the category is "Suggestion."
  • Issue Displays the exact kind of issue found.
  • Count Displays the number of places where the issue is found.
  • Status Displays the status of the issue. In other words, a cell may display "Loading…" if the analysis tool is still scanning for the issue.
