URL

Title

Last Accessed
You can use this filed to write texts/annotations of any length. You can use between the styles “regular”, “bold”, “italic”, “underline” or “text as link” but you may not combine these options. Darüber hinaus können Sie Text auch “Hochgestellt” oder “Tiefgestellt” darstellen lassen. Dies kann insbesondere für die visuelle Kennzeichnung von Fußnoten nützlich sein. Please note that there is only one font available.
If you require further formatting options or fonts, you can use the “Insert Foreign Markup, Code or Preformatted Text” function.
Mark a Text as a Hyperlink
To link a text from the “Last Accessed” field to other elements please proceed as described in the section “Mark a Text as a Hyperlink” in chapter 3.
Tags
The “Tags” button allows you to label URLs with tags. The current number of tags assigned to a URL is displayed in parentheses. The section “Managing Element Tags” in the chapter “Tag Manager” explains how you can assign tags to elements, as well as other relevant information on managing your project’s tags.
Undo Changes
With this function you can reset your entries to the last saved state. Please note that this action cannot be undone.
Save Changes
When closing the URL Editor you will be asked to save all changes. You can also save changes at any time by clicking the “Save” button.
