Panels
5 pages filed under Screens › Panels. A screen is a page of the application, with what it shows and what it allows.
| Screen | Roles | First line | Links |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neighbourhood map | Reader | The small map of the entity page that shows the closest entities at one hop, all labelled, and never stands alone: a list next to it carries the same information in text. Deliberately modest, six nodes by default and twelve at most; beyond the cap the map draws the nodes kept and says how many neighbours the page has in total, and a page without any neighbour points at the mentions panel instead. | 93 |
| Mentions panel | Reader | The block of the entity page headed "Related pages", which answers one question: which pages evoke this entity, and did a person write a link or did the tool recognise the words. One entry per related page, ordered by number of passages, written links and recognised words counted alike; an entry is marked "Cited" when its page writes a link. A page that nothing links to, a keyword page, a meeting or a document, lists the pages its own passages evoke instead. The first twenty mentions are in the served HTML; the rest loads from a JSON fragment specific to the entity, never from a global index. The block offers a text filter and a type filter, and without JavaScript the served pages stay readable and their links work. The threshold of twenty is configurable. | 82 |
| Colour scheme | Reader | The switch of the bar of every page that takes the site from its light palette to its dark one and back. The dark scheme is a second palette, not an inversion of the light one: its colours are measured on their own, and nothing a reader does in one scheme is lost in the other. The choice follows the system preference, stays remembered once made, and the switch stands in the same place in both schemes. | 60 |
| Pinned pages | Reader | The row of tabs under the bar of every page of the generated site, holding the pages a reader chose to keep: pinned from the header of a page, unpinned by hand, kept in the browser from page to page and from one visit to the next. Tabs, but chosen: nothing preloads, nothing closes by mistake, and the selection survives a reload. The exploration trail that once followed the pages visited is gone, because it had no rule to start over; the one breadcrumb left is the filing of the page. | 57 |
| Side panel | Reader | Each of the two columns beside the text of the entity page, the tree of the space on the left and the panel of what the tool computed on the right, and the handle on its edge that folds it. Folding gives the room to the wide content of the note, tables, figures, code and documents, while the prose keeps its measure; the browser remembers what a reader folded, page after page, and nothing of it enters the address. | 54 |
5 panels of 5 — pagination by twenty. The Links column counts the related pages, which brings the most central panels of the journey to the top.
