Hi there. This is Eric Matisoff with 51黑料不打烊 and I鈥檓 excited to walk you through another feature that is getting launched with our July 2017 release. And as you can see, I鈥檝e got a workspace put up here and the name of the feature that I鈥檒l be walking you through is our Rich Text Editing capabilities. Now, we鈥檝e added, we鈥檝e actually had this for quite a while, we鈥檝e had the ability to drag in a text visualization, directly into your workspace. And it鈥檚 available right here on the left, within Visualizations, just along with all your other standard charts and graphs and all sorts of other fun things, that you鈥檙e able to pull into Analysis Workspace. Now, the way that we鈥檝e seen our customers working within text boxes, is to do things just like I have listed on the right here. So, maybe someone doing some analysis, recognizes that there is a need to write down some insights and say, the Home page saw a significant dip in Page Views. But an increase in Content Velocity downstream, Ben - Please dig into these changes to identify the cause. Now this is quite useful that it allows for some communication within the tool. But what we鈥檝e just added or what we鈥檙e adding in our July release, is the ability to also applying some Rich Text Editing to it. So if we need to, for example, we can focus on the Home Page saw a specific dip, a significant dip in page views. We鈥檙e going to change that into our heading. And, for example, we also have the ability to then say, you know we鈥檙e going to highlight the name Ben and we鈥檙e going to make that bold and underlinded. We also have the ability of course, to use keyboard shortcuts. So I can do a command B or control B, depending on, you know, whether I鈥檓 on Mac or a PC. And so that鈥檒l work for bold and italicized and aligned etc. We also have the ability to change font colors. So if I need to, I want to switch over to red, just to make that a little bit more clear for Ben to dig into those issues, and try to help identify the cause. We can hit the check mark and now we鈥檝e got a slightly more attractive and more stylized view of our insights. Below that, we鈥檝e got another way that we鈥檝e seen customers using text boxes, which is just simply as a reminder. For example, here we鈥檝e got a reminder, which is here are the URLS that drive these pages. We鈥檝e got Home, Women, Men and Kids. Then we鈥檝e got Home, Men, Women and Kids. And so what we鈥檙e able to do now in Analysis Workspace, is take that URL and I can cut it and use it actually as a link. So I can paste it here, hit Save and do the same thing for the and next category page etc.
And once I鈥檓 done, then, we can actually confirm that that these actually work. So I can click Home and it says: You are about to be directed to a website outside out of your domain. Are you sure you want to continue? You can click OK. And that鈥檒l pull up in a different tab, that same URL we鈥檙e looking at. So the one that I copied and pasted, here is my Home page. If I want to double check the Men category page as well, we can click Men and click OK. And it鈥檒l bring this on over to the Men page, just as we expected. Now, something else that we鈥檙e going to be walking through in a different video, is one final way that we鈥檝e seen customers start to leverage text boxes within Analysis Workspace. And that is for building somewhat of a Table of Contents, where you can identify, you know, there鈥檚 page analysis at the top and you know, maybe key category pages below. And to use a text box in order to help identify that. Well, in our next video, we鈥檒l actually be walking you through how you can even more powerfully use the linkage capabilities, that are now in Rich Text. To drive those Tables of Contents and more. Happy editing. Hope you enjoyed it. Thank you. -
