Page Attributes

Every page in GEDI has page attributes. Page attributes are fields that contain information about particular pages. Each page edited in GEDI has its own values for the page attributes defined for that image directory. By entering the values of the page attributes, information about the page as a whole can be entered, such as whether it is a handwritten or a typed document. Page attributes can be configured in the Page tab of the Preferences menu.

Setting the Value of a Page Attribute

To set a value for the attribute of a particular page, first open the page. The Page tab of the lowest table in the left panel will display the attribute names and values for the displayed page. Select the value you wish to change by clicking on the cell displaying it. You can then type in a new value for the attribute, or select the value from a drop down menu if a list of possible values is defined for that attribute. Not all attributes listed in the table can be changed directly in the table.

Using Hotkeys to Set a Value for an Attribute

To set a value for the attribute of a particular zone, first open the page, then press the hotkey combination for the value and attribute that you wish to set. Hotkey combinations can be set in the Page tab of the Preferences menu, and are always Alt + a number.
