Chapter 3. Local Corpus

3.1. Import to Local Corpus

Working at the local corpus you can either edit an existing corpus or create a new one (see 3.2). To edit a corpus you must import it in the Local Corpus. To do so, either drag and drop the selected corpus or import by right clicking on the corpus node and selecting import. In the dialogue box that pops up you can check the Show Details and Options box in order to Overwrite Local Changes and/or Copy Resource Files.

(1) Overwrite Local Changes : In the case that you want to reset the changes of a corpus you are already working on, you can reimport it from the Remote Corpus and check the overwrite local changes box. If you want to edit a corpus you have already uploaded to the remote corpus via Lamus, you have to reimport it in the Local Corpus, even if a copy is already there. In this case you have to select the Overwrite Local Changes option.

(2) Copy Resource Files: This option allows you to import resource files to your computer. Press Start to copy the branch to your Local Corpus tree.
