Working with Fact Types

Post by rfj1001 » 30 Jan 2016 18:12

There are a few things I'd like to do with the fact sets but don't know how - such as making a hidden fact no longer hidden and changing the default sentence structure.

I was looking for something generic and/or specific on the website to get me up the learning curve but drew a blank.

Does anyone know if anything suitable exists and if so, could you send me the url

Many thanks

Robin

The FH Help topic Work With Fact Sets should be a good place to start.

Robin, may be you don't realise you need to start with the Tools > Fact Types command, and then its Help button gives advice, with links to the Work with Fact Sets advice.

But in the dialogue you will see options to Show and Hide fact definitions.

To alter a Sentence Template you must select a Fact and click Edit, and there is a Help button there.

Thanks Mike/Peter

Not sure what I was doing incorrectly before I posted but I wasn't getting anything on the topic when I searched FH help from the menu bar.

This time I've got the "Work with Facts Sets" topic that you both mentioned - so I'm now back in business

Regards,


Robin
