Article Graph Help
Article Domains Panel Help
The Article Domains panel indicates the primary domain designation of the currently selected article, as well as any secondary domains the selected article may also be tagged wtih.
All domains are given a color reference, and all article nodes are colored according to their primary domain designation.
User Interactions
- The domains listed are live links. Single-click the domain name to load its respective Domain Graph.
The domain taxonomy used for grouping articles is not derived from the SEP itself. It is based on the taxonomy from the Indiana University Philosophy Ontology Project (InPhO).
Link Domains Panel Help
The Link Primary Domains Panel shows the primary domain designations of each of the linked articles, as well as the number of articles within each domain for the currently selected article.
All domains are given a color reference, and all article nodes are colored according to their primary domain designation.
User Interactions
- MouseOver a Link Domain to focus on only the articles in that domain.
MouseOut to reset the graph. - Single-click a Link Domain category to freeze the graph in that state.
The selected Link Domain is bolded. The other domains, as well as all of the Link Direction categories, are dimmed.
Single-click the bolded Link Domain again to reset the graph.
Link Directions Panel Help
The Link Directions Panel shows the three categories of links that are possible between articles, as well as the number of articles within each category for the currently selected article.
Link Direction categories:
- Bi-Directional Links: The number of articles where the selected article and the linked article both link to and from each other.
- In-Coming Links: The number of articles where the linked article links into the selected article, but where the selected article does not link back.
- Out-Going Links: The number of articles where the selected article links out to the linked article, but where the linked article does not link back.
User Interactions:
- MouseOver a Link Direction Category to focus on only the articles in that category.
MouseOut to reset the graph. - Single-click a Link Direction category to freeze the graph in that state.
The selected Link Direction is bolded. The other directions, as well as all of the Link Domains, are dimmed.
Single-click the bolded Link Direction again to reset the graph.
List of Articles Panel Help
This panel contains an alphabetical list of all the linked articles for the currently selected article, with each title colored by its primary domain designation. Because this information duplicates the nodes and titles in the radial graph, it is hidden by default. But there are two cases where having this list is important:
- Some graphs are so large that having the alphabetical list available is helpful for exploration.
- When the Article Details page is opened up for any article, this panel automatically expands so that you can easily get the details for all other linked articles.
User Interactions: Panel Heading
- Single-click on the panel heading, or its toggle button, to expand its contents. When you expand the “List of Articles” panel, the Link Domains and Link Directions panels will collapse.
- Single-click the “List of Articles” heading again to re-collapse this panel, and to restore the Link Domains and Link Directions panels.
User Interactions: Article List
- Same interactivity options as nodes & titles in the Article Graph.
