Protege 4 Axiom Annotations

This page describes a new feature that will be available from build 102 onwards.


Back to Protege4UserDocs


Axiom Annotations

In OWL1.0 we can annotate any named thing (ontologies, classes, properties etc).

In OWL2.0 we are allowed more control over annotations which can also be added to arbitrary axioms - eg subClassOf(A, B).


Viewing/Editing Axiom Annotations in Protege 4.0

Protege 4.0 currently has two straightforward ways to view and edit axiom annotations. The main purpose of these straightforward implementations is just to make this feature of OWL2.0 available to P4 users at this time, but we would be interested in feedback about more advanced visualisations.

There are two ways to view/edit axiom annotations in P4. Both use the familiar annotations view interface, so should be straightforward to use.

Axiom annotations button

Visible in all P4 lists (such as the class description view). This pops up a dialog that allows annotations to be added to the row that was selected.

When annotations exist on a particular axiom (row) the button is modified so that it is easy to scan (I'm up for some feedback on what might look a bit nicer here).

Of course, annotations are themselves axioms so in both mechanisms it is possible to annotate the axiom annotations.

Axiom Annotations View

Available in View | Misc Views. This looks exactly like the other annotations views, but follows the selection of axioms in the other views.
