Extracting phrases from dimension names

Using Developer Studio, you can add phrases to your project based on the dimension values of any dimension you choose.

The MDEX Engine adds each multi-term dimension value in a selected dimension to the phrase dictionary. Single-term dimension values are not included. For example, if you import a WineType dimension from a wine catalog, the MDEX Engine creates a phrase entry for multi-term names such as "Pinot Noir" but not for single-term names such as "Merlot".

To extract phrases from dimension names:

  1. Open your project in Developer Studio.

  2. In the Project Explorer, expand Search Configuration.

  3. Double-click Automatic Phrasing to display the Automatic Phrasing editor.

  4. Select a dimension from the All dimensions panel and add it to the Selected dimensions panel by clicking Add. The editor should look like this example:

  5. If desired, repeat step 4 to add more dimensions.

  6. Click OK on the Automatic Phrasing dialog box.

  7. Select Save from the File menu.

The project's phrases.xml configuration file is updated with the dimension names. Note that imported phrases are not overwritten by this procedure.
