Use a classification sheet to see attribute values

 


If you add classifications to your project and use them to classify your nodes or sources, you can use a classification sheet to:

  • See all the items in a selected classification—for example, see all the nodes classified as Person

  • Add or edit the attribute values for all items in a selected classification—for example, the age, sex and occupation of all interview respondents.

What do you want to do?
