Karl, Try "group by namespace" option to see if it helps. It is accessible from an icon at the bottom left of the Properties and Classes views.

My story: I have an ontology that I want to align with BIBO and FOAF, for the sake of improving interoperability by utilizing standardized base classes and properties. Thus, I import BIBO and FOAF into my ontology using the Imports tab of Composer, and start to connect my classes as being subclasses of various BIBO and FOAF classes. However, since these two ontologies are fairly large my lists of properties and classes now become extremely cluttered and more or less impossible to navigate efficiently. Things raises two questions: 1) Am I going about things in the wrong way entirely? Is there another easier way of saying that my entities are subentities of things in these standard ontologies, besides importing the whole ontologies? 2) If not, is there any way of filtering what I get to see when using TopBraid Composer, so that I can filter out all of the properties and classes from the imported ontologies that are irrelevant to me? Any feedback is much appreciated! Best regards, Karl Hammar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TopBraid Composer Users" group.
