Generate Descriptors

Generate a descriptor data document

This tool is used to generate a structured documentation of descriptors stored in the database. To use this tool, start a query for descriptors and choose Data ->  Generate Document … from the menu. A window will open as shown below.

You may select all entries by clicking the all button, deselect all entries by clicking the none button or toggle your selection by clicking the swap button. Choose among the provided options and click on the button Create … documentation to create a document in one of the available formats.

HTML

If you create a HTML documentation, a local file named <Database name>_Descriptor.htm is generated in the application directory, that might be copied and edited for own purposes. By clicking button Select colors you may open a dialog window where you can select the colors of different elements (see window below).

If in the datasets RTF-like formatting tags like \i or \sub{} are included, use option Accept RTF mark-ups as shown in the picture below. 

MediaWiki

If you create a MediaWiki documentation, you may copy the generated text from the output window and insert it in the MediaWiki page. With the Layout option you may determine if all data shall be included in a large table or if several tables with additional header lines shall be generated (see image below).
