Managing Relations

Relations between documents are very important in CUE systems. They are used to both represent links between documents (links to related articles, for example), and inclusions of one document in another (the inclusion of images and/or videos in articles, for example).

Relations are displayed in the attributes panel on the right of the document tab, in a division called Related. To display the relations, click/tap the graphics/attribute-related-button.png button.

You can then add a relation to the document in either of the following ways:

    1. Open the Search ( graphics/search-button.png ) or Recent ( graphics/recent-button.png ) side panel (on the left side of the document).

    2. Find the document you want in the side panel.

    3. Drag your chosen document across to the Related section.

    4. Drop it in the appropriate relation field.

    1. Select the graphics/new-button.png button above one of the relation fields. This displays a Pick relation dialog.

    2. Select the document you want to add as a relation. There is a search field at the top of the dialog to help you find the document you want.

    3. Click /tap Add.

You can also add the document you are currently working on as a relation in another document. The other document must already be open in CUE as well. To do this:

  1. Select the drag handle of the document you are currently working on. A document's drag handle is the graphics/content-drag-handle.png icon displayed in the top right corner of the document.

  2. Drag the handle to the tab of the document you want to relate it to.

  3. Hold the drag handle over the tab until the target document comes into view.

  4. Drag the handle to the required relations field and drop it there. (You might need to first drag the handle to the graphics/attribute-related-button.png button and hold it there until the attributes panel opens and displays the Related section.)

To remove a relation, select its graphics/delete-button.png button.
