Protege Desktop Features
This page contains a short overview of the main features in Protege Desktop, versions 4, 5 and higher.

Contents
GUI Framework
- Configurable (persistent) layout of components
- Creation, import, and export of user configured tabs
- Multiple alternative views of the same ontology
- Tear-off and cloning of components
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Drag and drop support
- Lazy loading components/plug-ins for improved speed and memory usage
API
- OWL API for OWL 2.0 provides efficient in-memory model
- Plug-in framework is OSGi compliant Equinox (easily extensible)
- Generic application framework is separated from OWL Editor Kit
Modularization
- Intelligent use of local/global repositories to handle import dependencies
- Loading of multiple ontologies into a single workspace
- Switching between ontologies dynamically
- UI hints for showing in which ontology statements are made
- Refactoring: merging ontologies and removal of redundant imports
- Refactoring: moving axioms between ontologies
- History
- Global/local find
- Global usage
- Hyperlinking in editors
Refactoring Tools
- Renaming (including multiple entities)
- Handling disjoints/different
- Quick defined class creation
- Various transforms on restrictions (including covering)
- Conversion of IDs to labels
- Moving axioms between ontologies
Reasoning Support
- Inferred axioms show up in most standard views
- DL Query tab for testing arbitrary class expressions
- Direct interface to FaCT++ reasoner
- Direct interface to Pellet reasoner
- Reasoners are plug-ins
OWL Editing
- Consistent rendering of ontology entities, using URI fragments or annotation values
- OWL description parsing (also supports names in annotations)
- Built-in change support allowing compound changes and undo
- Autocompletion and expression history
- Syntax highlighting
- Auto creation of IDs/labels for new entities
- SWRL rules editing
Plug-ins
- Highly pluggable architecture with support for lots of different types of plugin including views, menu actions, reasoners, preferences, several manager hooks and more
- Auto-update for notification of new plugins and new versions
- Many plugins available including reasoners, matrices, scripting, clouds, existential tree, text mining, explanation, ontology processing, lint test framework, natural language generation and more
