Managing Tags

Cxense can generate different categories of tags, and the Cxense Semantic plug-in can be configured to assign these categories to corresponding tag collections in your publication. If a tag suggestion returned by Cxense matches an existing tag or tag alias in your tag collection, then that tag is used. If your collection does not contain a matching tag, then the plug-in creates one.

Escenic tag collections can have a tree structure, but the tags returned by Cxense are not structured in any way. If a returned tag does not match an existing tag in your structure, then it will be created as a free-standing tag at the top level of your structure. Once it has been created, however, you can move it to the required location in your tag structure using the Manage Tags dialog (see The Manage Tags Dialog).

Tags returned by Cxense are mapped on to tags in your target tag collection by string matching. This means that new tags will sometimes be created unnecessarily due to the use of synonyms or spelling variations. When this occurs you can "tidy up" by using the Manage Tags dialog's Merge function (see Merging Tags) to merge the new tags with existing ones.
