<h3>Making relationships between words</h3>
- <p>The tool itself is an interface for allowing these relationships to be declared. The collation is presented as a variant graph running from left to right. In a variant graph, each node is a reading, and each witness takes a single path through the readings from beginning to end. When readings appear vertically aligned with each other, it is an indication that they are variant readings, occurring at the same point in the text.

When readings appear vertically aligned with each other, it is an indication that they are variant readings, occurring at the same point in the text. In the example given here, the variants include "ecclesia/que", "beata/sancta/beatam", "uirgine/uirginem", and "tres/duas". </p>

<p>In 'select' mode, when the nodes are green, you can navigate through the graph. Scrolling up or down will zoom in and out, respectively; dragging the graph will pan it in that direction. Use this navigation to hone in on the part of the graph to be worked with.</p>
- <p> When you are ready to draw relationships, click the 'pencil' icon to enter edit mode. When you select a node (by clicking on it) you can drag it onto another node to indicate that a relationship exists between them. Fill in the details of the relationship as follows:</p>
-<p><em>Type</em> can be one of:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>Orthographic - these are interchangeable representations of the same reading</li>
- <li>Spelling - these are variant spellings of the same reading</li>
- <li>Grammatical - these readings are word forms with the same lemma</li>
- <li>Lexical - these readings fulfill corresponding functions in the text. Use the "Annotation" field to elaborate.</li>
- <li>Meaning - these readings have corresponding meanings (e.g. synonyms, antonyms). Use the "Annotation" field to elaborate.</li>
- <li>Transposition - this pair actually represents the same reading, but its location varies between witnesses.

<p><em>Scope</em> can be one of:</p>

+ <p>The relationships are displayed as colored paths between readings.

<h3>Correcting the collation</h3>
- <p>Occasionally, the collation as uploaded will contain errors, or need for some other reason to be modified. Within the relationship mapper, you can detach a sequence of readings and re-attach it elsewhere as a form of manual collation.</p>
+ <p>Occasionally, the collation as uploaded will contain errors, or need for some other reason to be modified. For example, in the following snippet, the witness Ba96 has a string of words "cetera. Secundo uere asserendo" that have been separated from their analogues in other witnesses through an erroneous collation of the "et" in Ba96 with a later "et" in the majority of witnesses.</p>

- <p>To detach one or more readings, drag with the mouse to select an area of the graph that includes all the affected readings. A dialog will pop up to ask which witnesses should be detached from the collation at that point. To attach a reading elsewhere, select it and drag it to the corresponding reading elsewhere in the graph, just as though you were making a relationship. There should be an option to specify that the readings are identical; select it.</p>

<h3>Adding [% language %] morphological information to readings</h3>
<p>If initial lemmatization has been performed on the text, a number of readings may appear in yellow rather than green; this means that there are multiple possible morphologies for the reading in question. Double click on the reading to select and save the correct morphology.</p>
