EN:Highlighting
The highlighting is used to group terms and create synonym groups.
Different colours can be assigned to the different groups.
This way specific terms can be highlighted in the patent texts.
Utilization of the highlighting
Open the highlighting via the menu item "Result list" - "Manage Highlighting".
Here the highlighting can be set up and edited.
It is possible to set up multiple highlighting schemes.
One highlighting scheme contains one or more synonym groups.
When switching from one scheme to another, the newly selected scheme is activated using the button “Activate“.
Using right click it is possible to instantly add a term from a patent text to a highlighting group.
This way it is also possible to create new highlighting groups.
Priority of highlighting groups
Example
Mark an entire word
Example
Don’t mark words (Add exceptions)
Example:
All terms containing “hydro“ should be marked, except the term “hydrocarbon“.
Temporary synonym groups
Using the feature "Add search phrases to highlighting", search terms of a text search are included in a temporary synonym group.
This way the search terms are highlighted until the next search is performed.
When a new search is performed, the temporary synonym group is replaced by a new group containing the new search terms.
By clicking on the clock icon next to the group name the temporary group can be saved permanently.
Selection
It is possible to activate and deactivate specific terms in a synonym group.
The box must be checked, in order for the term to be highlighted.
Entire synonym groups can be activated or deactivated.
