Frequently asked questions (version 1.0)
Conceptual graph edition
- When I double click on an edge of the graph, nothing happens. How to add a number to the edges ?
Generally, when you double click on an edge, a number is assigned to this edge and, if repeated, another number is assigned.
All possible values are thus accessible. However, if the signature of the relation is not compatible with the type of concept, no number is assigned.
It is possible to postpone some corrections, and force the number assignation by using the contextual menu attached to the edge.
The "edge change order" menu option has all the numbers (with valid numbers being in bold).
This version does not store queries as a separate kind of knowledge. However, queries can be saved as facts:
- create a new set of facts called "Queries" for instance
- use the button
in the editor toolbar to save your query
- I want to change a graph too large to be fully displayed , how?
To change a big graph, find the part you are interested in using the query wizard.
Select the graph alone and apply no rule. The graph itself is displayed in each response and you can change it directly.
Vocabulary edition
- The vocabulary control refuses the signature
of
a relation type because it is not compatible with the signature of
another relation type, why ?
Assume that A is a relation type and B is another relation type such as B is a
kind of A (B<=A). The signature of A (a1,a2...,an) is
comptatible with the signature of B (b1,b2...,bn) if
b1<=a1,b2<=b2,...bn<=an (covariance property).
When this sort of errors occurs, you can use the "propose signature"
command in the contextual menu attached to relation type B.
Miscellaneous
- When I open the application, the selected language is English, and I must select my own language each time I launch CoGui.
Default language can be set in Tools/Preferences/General/Current language.
