Lexicon Editor view
You can then install the edited lexicon files in a remote controller using the platform Lexicon Installer view. Also, you can create (or update) a lexicon module with those edited lexicon files, using the new Lexicon Module Builder view. You can install the module in a remote controller using the platform Software Manager view.
Figure 5. Lexicon editor
Typically, you access the editor from the Lexicon Report view with a lexicon selected on the left side, by double-clicking a module in the selection table on the right side
The lexicon editor displays a table listing the defined keys for that module, with columns for mapping to a localized value override for the default value, as follows:
KeyInterface entity, constant in that module from lexicon to lexicon.
DefaultDefault character value, used if no local value is defined for that key (English equivalent).
ValueLocalized character value (overrides default value).
NOTE: Check boxes at the top of the view allow you to “hide” values that could affect “missing” status counts, or filter the view to show only those keys “missing” localized character values or only those keys with “completed” localized character values, as described in “Lexicon display options”.
At the top of this view, you can search for the specified text on either the lexicon property Key, the property Default, or the custom Value. As needed, you can resort the table columns to find information needed, and simply click any row to select that key. Clicking any row in the table populates the Key field.
At the bottom of the Lexicon Editor view, the Add New Key button enables the Key field. The Value text field allows you to modify the value of the selected key or add a value for a new key. The Value field has associated Color Chooser and Ord Chooser buttons. These options allow you to browse for a specific color or ORD element. Update the table with the Value field entry by clicking the Update Value button. Write changes to the lexicon file by clicking the Save button on the toolbar.
