The Tag Cloud
The portal provides a Tag Cloud for aggregating tags for multiple resources. You can select tags from the tag cloud. The Tag Results portlet then lists resources to which users have applied the tags that you selected.
By default the tag cloud has the tags ordered alphabetically. Font sizes visualize how often users have applied the tag within a defined scope. The larger the font of a tag is, the more users have applied it.
When using the tag cloud, you can select from the following options:
- Select the option to view the tags in a cloud view or in a list view. Depending on choice, use the following user interface controls for adjusting the tag view as required:
- In the cloud view determine whether you want to view more or fewer tags by moving the slider.
- In the list view use the pagination controls to scroll through the listed tags.
- Select from the available tag cloud views to filter what is displayed in the tag cloud:
- Select the All view to show the most popular public tags in the currently selected scope.
- Select the Latest view to show only the most recently created public tags.
- Select the Personal view to show only those tags that you have assigned yourself, both as public and as private tags.
- Select the Private view to show only those tags that you have assigned as private tags.
- If administrator has enabled scopes for the tag cloud, you can select between different scopes. Scopes can be preconfigured by administrator, or they can be transmitted by other portlets on the same page. For example, you might be able to scope the tag cloud to show you only pages, portlets, or other resources, depending on the configuration made by administrator.
