Other operations with dictionaries
There are some other operations which available in the context menu of a dictionary.
Versions of a dictionary
The Show versions option allows you to see the versions of a dictionary. To do so, right-click a dictionary and choose the appropriate option.
More on dictionaries versions is given here.
Copying to a language
The Copy to language option is a similar one to creating a copy of the dictionary, thought a dictionary copy is created for a chosen language.
This may be useful when there are different languages in a text your work with.
Copying a base part of a dictionary
Any PolyAnalyst dictionary consists of two parts, i.e. a base part (initially present in the dictionary, i.e. the zero version of the dictionary) and user changes.
The Copy base part of dictionary to… is quite a dangerous operation. This will replace the base part of a chosen dictionary with the base part of the source dictionary.
This operation cannot be undone.
Access to a dictionary
The Access rights option allows you to give access to a chosen dictionary category. Only administrators and owners of the dictionaries can change these parameters.
More on the access rights is given further.
Debugging a dictionary
The Debug operation allows to debug the dictionaries, e.g. when there may be a dictionary conflict.
There are 3 debugging options available, i.e.
-
Refresh statistics of the initial dictionary – the base version of the dictionary will be refreshed.
-
Merge all user changes into initial dictionary – all the changes will be merged with the initial version of the dictionary, e.g. a changed clone of the dictionary and the original version of the dictionary will have no differences (in other words, all the changes will be saved directly to the basic dictionary).
-
Remove from memory cache – the dictionary will be removed from cache.
