Modifying a Corpus

You can modify a corpus by clicking on the Modify button of the Documents Tool.

Documents with the Works of Jane Austen.

Note that any modifications actually create a new corpus (so the URL will change). The following modifications are available:

  • Add more documents by clicking the Add button (this will cause the corpus creation window to appear, but any new documents will be added to the corpus)
  • Remove documents by selecting one ore more documents at once (using the shift or ctrl/command keys) and then clicking the Remove button (this keeps all of the unselected documents)
  • Keep documents by selecting one ore more documents at once (using the shift or ctrl/command keys) and then clicking the Keep button (this removes all of the unselected documents)
  • Reorder documents by dragging and dropping them within the grid and then hitting the Reorder button

Note that only one of these operations can be done at a time, so, for instance, you can first remove some documents and then in the new corpus you can reorder the remaining documents.
