  1. Type the name of an attribute by starting with @, or select an attribute from the overview in the Quaestor node;
  2. Select the attribute in field 7, the short presentation of the function is shown in field 4;
  3. Click on field 4: all (taxonomy) parameters and relations are shown containing the attribute.

...

Furthermore, the demo show that switching on the option "Connect Workbase to Knowledge Browser" under the Appearance tab of the Tools>Options window will enable you to see the (Taxonomy) relations in the Knowledge Browser related to the selection in the QTaxonomy node.

...

You can also remove frames. However, a knowledge base is always protected against this modification as this might have influence on the projects used with the knowledge base. "Under water" the frames are represented by numbers (pointers), when you delete a frame, these pointers are renumbered. And as a result projects with this old numbering will not work properly anymore (you will be warned). Therefore, when you want to remove a frame, you have to remove the delete protection (File>Allow deleting frames ).

Furthermore, you are able to group relevant parameters and relations in classes in the class tree. You can create a new class and arrange existing classes in the class tree on the left side of the Knowledge Browser and drag and drop parameters and relations in these classes.
The purpose of classes is to organise your parameters. You do this by selecting any existing class and press the right mouse button.

...

To reorder the classes you have to press the button between the forward and back buttons of the knowledge browser (field 2). This button will switch the class tree view between Class List,  Domains and Class Tree view (the default view). Please note that button has the name of the view you will switch to (and not the present view). In the Class List mode you will see all classes presented in a syntax showing sub-classes after a dot. So, a sub-class of "Top Goals/Undefined" class is presented as "Top Goals/Undefined.sub-class". You can simply drag and drop the presented class entries in order to manipulate the order of classes and sub-classes. The only class you cannot move is "Top Goals/Undefined".

Please look at the KE Tutorials for more details. 

Remarks 

  • Please realise that when editing a constraint, you will edit this constraint for all relations it is connected to.
  • Furthermore, realise that if you do not try to connect possible existing constraints first, you will end up with numerous amount of the same constraints that you cannot delete without destroying projects after you have release your knowledge base. Therefore, when you need a constraint to a relation, first try to connect an existing one and or modify an existing constraint before creating a new one; 
  • It is also important to realise that renaming of a parameter will automatically modify relations and constraints they are part of.However, parameters in dataslots and between quotes will not automatically be renamed. You have to use the Search & Replace... option (in the right mouse window) to make sure these parameters are also renamed.
  • In addition to all the actions above, please use the right click mouse menu to see all kinds of additional options such as a knowledge base clipboard to copy knowledge.
