Wiki#

  • Wiki Overview

    The Allegra Wiki allows you to make documents accessible to many and to edit them together. Wiki documents can be exported as Word documents based on Word templates or as PDF documents using HTML templates.

  • Creating Documents

    To create a new document, go to the Wiki Navigator and right click on a workspace or revision node. Then click on “Add document” or another specific type of document offered.

  • Creating Document Sections

    To create a new document section, go to the Wiki Navigator and right click on a document or document section node. Then click on “Add document section”.

  • Editing Content

    The Wiki is not a complete replacement for a word processing program. However, it has all the essential functions to create high-quality documents.

  • Multilingual Documents

    You can manage each document in multiple languages. With a language selector you can select the language to be displayed for the entire Wiki.

  • Embedding Items

    You can embed any item into a document section. This is particularly useful when you are working with requirements or test specifications and want to keep the requirements separate from the document with informative text. In addition, you can reuse items in different documents.

  • Embedding Attributes

    You can embed attributes of the relevant document or document section into a document text. This allows you to display all metadata of a document, such as the responsible and state, in the document itself.

  • Reading and Commenting on Wikis

    You can allow any or specific users to read and comment on Wiki documents. For this, there are special permissions in the role/permission system.

  • Export Documents

    You can create an MS Word document from a Wiki document using an MS Word template. You can create PDF documents from Wiki documents that are based on HTML templates.

  • Creating HTML Templates

    You can create PDF documents from the Wiki using HTML/Freemarker templates. This section explains how you can convert text and metadata from your Wiki document with an HTML/Freemarker template into a PDF document.

  • Creating Word Templates

    To create a new Word template, use a Word template that you have created with the OpenDoPE authoring tool plug-in for MS Word.

  • Embed Wiki into a Website

    You can embed the Wiki into a standard website. You can assign your own stylesheet to customize the appearance of the Wiki.
