SUMO   View all facts   Glossary

• The left pane shows SUMO subjects arranged in a concept hierarchy - each subject is a kind of the subject above it.
• By default a Java applet is used to navigate the concept hierarchy; however the hierarchy is also available as an HTML bulleted list (with less features than the applet version)
• If you click on a subject in the hierarchy, you will see facts about that subject appear in this pane.
• To search for a subject, use the Find box or press Ctrl F.
• You can view the subjects in alphabetical order by clicking on the alphabetical tab in the left pane :
• You can view the subjects as a graph by clicking on the graph tab in the left pane :
• You can compare what the differences are between a subject and its siblings or between all the children of a subject by clicking on the Compare tab in this pane.
• Move the mouse over the icon to view the source, date and other facets associated with the fact.
• Clicking on the icon goes to the web site containg information about the fact.
• To link from an external web site to a subject in the Fact Guru SUMO knowledge base use http://factguru.com/sumo/ then append .html to the subject name and remove the spaces. For example FieldOfStudy becomes
  http://factguru.com/sumo/FieldOfStudy.html
