Hierarchy

Clicking on the Hierarchy link on the Project Overview page (or alternatively from the Ontology navigation bar) displays the Hierarchy component (hierarchical instance structure) viewing page [1].

Viewing Hierarchy

1. Hierarchy viewing page tab
2. Click on "+" to expand the list of subordinates, click on "-" to collapse the list of subordinates
3. link to the Class instance

The page displays a hierarchy tree whose branches are expanded or collapsed by clicking on "Plus" or "Minus" before the node name [2]. The name of the node is a reference to an instance of the Class [3]. Clicking on a node displays the page for viewing or editing the instance of the corresponding Class.

The procedure for editing a Hierarchy is given in the section on editing the Hierarchy role attribute.
