Generating an index list

You can generate an alphabetical listing of index entries with grid locations. You can also add, delete, and modify list entries. Verification Mode, when enabled, interactively locates a list entry within the current Map.

Note: If you are using a grid element in the project, only the text inside a grid is added to the index.

From the Indexation window, click the Index List tab.
Click Build. The Item count box shows the number of index entries listed. If you want to add an item to the index list, click Add Selection , click in the new row, type an index entry, and press Enter.

Once you have generated an index list, you can edit the information.

To...	Do the following:
Sort an index alphabetically	Click Sort.
Delete an item from the index list	Select a row and click Delete Row.
Add alphabetical headings to the index items	Click Add Headings.
Delete index headings	Click Delete Headings.
Rename an item in the list	Click in a row, type a new name, and press Enter.
Re-generate an index list	Click OK.

Verification Mode

You can verify an index list by selecting an entry. Focus displays the precise location on the Map where the text is located. If a location is not within the view pane, the Indexation module shifts to where the text is located. The layer where text is located must be active for the Verification tool to work properly.
