To create new association you need to first address which topic plays a role in the association. Addressing the player may happen by
- Opening player topic to closer inspection in topic panel
- Selecting player topic in topic tree or topic table
As you have addressed the player, start association editor. Wandora has two slightly different editors to create and modify associations. Schema editor expects you have created a special topic map schema for associations accepted for the player. Schemaless editor doesn't make any assumptions and gives you freedom to create any kind of associations. Schema association editor starts with Add to topic > Add association.... Schemaless association editor starts with Add to topic > Add schemaless association....
Association editor
Association editor used to add schema associations has a drop down selector on the top of editor window. Selector contains only schema defined association types. Below the horizontal ruler are members of the association. All members have a role and a player. First player is fixed as you started the editor in context of the player, here artist, and you can only change the role of first player.
Other players of the association are entered to text fields. Pressing TABULATOR key in the field opens selection list for available players. You can select the player in the list or write player's base name. If no topic exists with given base name, new topic is created with given name and the topic is typed with the role.
