Okay, let’s break again here for a second activity.

  1. Play around with activation and the Retrieved Segments panel. Try to retrieve segments with different combinations of documents and codes.
  2. Try creating a parent code and adding a couple codes underneath.
  3. Try merging two codes that you have coded some segments with. Then try retrieving the newly merged code’s segments to see the result.
  4. Try running a Text Search, searching for the word “constraint” and autocode all the results.
  5. Use the Retrieved Segments panel to retrieve those newly coded segments.
