| − | == Import and Export ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wandora has been designed to enable easy aggregation of knowledge and features wide range of import and export tools. Wandora is capable to export not just different topic map formats but also N3, HTML, and XML. Wandora's native file format is Wandora project (WPR) which is a collection of XTM topic maps and configuration file within a zip package. Managing of topic maps is easy as Wandora allows the user to copy and paste topics and associations using system clipboard. Usually import tools locate in Wandora's '''File > Import''' menu. Export tools locate in Wandora's '''File > Export''' menu. To export one layer select menu option in layer context under '''Export layer'''. To import into a specific layer select menu option in layer context under '''Merge to layer'''.

| − | == Extractors ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wandora is great for information mashups. With Wandora you can easily mashup information from various sources. Extractors are specific Wandora tools used to extract topics and associations out of different file formats and sources. Wandora can extract data from MP3 and JPG files for example. To see what extractors your Wandora has installed see '''File > Extract'''. To start an extractor just select the extractor name in the menu or use drag and drop extractor. If you don't find the extractor in the menu use Tool manager to add the extractor into the menu. Wandora also contains an add-on for Mozilla Firefox WWW browser. With the add-on you can perform extractions directly in browser.

| − | == Generators ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Generators are special tools that generate topics and associations algorithmically. Generators help you to construct basic building blocks for your topic maps. Generators also serve as a nice test suite for Wandora and topic maps in general. Generators locate in Wandora's '''File > Generate''' menu. Available generators are

| − | == Schema ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Schema is a collection of specific topics and associations that Wandora uses to construct the user interface of association editor, occurrence editor and topic name panel. Schema eases many topic map operations such as association and occurrence construction. Schema also defines the language support of Wandora application.

| − | == Layers ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wandora supports layered topic maps. Layered topic map contains one or more topic maps stacked into an ordered array. This separation of merged topic maps allows flexible management of topic maps and enables the birth of public knowledge repositories used as a component of other Wandora based knowledge bases. Layer specific options locate in '''Layers''' menu.
