Keywords view

This view displays the list of the keywords that are already created in the current location. To manage the keywords thesaurus, which contains the explanations on the keywords and the keywords synonyms, you must connect to the Rational Team Concert™ server.

The keywords list is sorted alphabetically.

If you click the + symbol that is in front of a keyword, you can see the instances, sorted by entities, where this keyword is called.

You can modify the way instances are shown in the Keywords view. Click the upside-down triangle icon (View menu) of the view toolbar and select one of the following choices:
  • Sort to specify a new sort criterion.
  • Display to display more information about each instance line in the tree. You can combine the information. If you want to remove some of the selected information from the line, select it again in the menu.
This new setting is then automatically saved and associated with the Keywords view until you change it again.
The toolbar also includes filters to reduce the number of keywords that are displayed in the view. Two filters are available. You can combine them:
  • With Filtering pattern, you filter the keywords on their names. Enter a character string. You can include wildcards anywhere in this string. The * wildcard replaces any string and the ? wildcard replaces any character.
  • With Number of visible items, you indicate the maximum number of keywords that can be displayed in the view.

If you right-click an instance in the tree, you can Open it in its dedicated editor, or search for its references.
