This screen sets the relative ranking of source/term type combinations. The name of a concept will be determined by the highest ranking source and term type in that concept.

Term types from sources that have been excluded on the Sources tab will not be visible here.

To change source/term pair rankings:

  1. Select the rows to move by clicking anywhere in the row. Multiple rows can be selected by holding down the [Shift] or [Control] key while clicking.
  2. Use [Control] & X to cut the rows and [Control] & V to paste the rows
    or
    Drag and drop the rows into place by holding down the mouse button, and releasing it when the correct location is reached.

    Note: Dragging and dropping is not recommended for Solaris users.

This completes the options for this tab. Users may proceed to the other Options tabs in any order by clicking on the tabs across the top of the screen, or by clicking on the File bar and selecting .
