## Add Library Pass Submenu

The Library Pass Submenu allows users to add a new pass and to associate it with a pre-built pass file (or "library pass"). The contents of this submenu adjust dynamically, depending on pass files that have been placed in the release folder TextAI\VisualText\data\spec. Users may add their own favorite or generic pass files to this folder. The number next to the library pass indicates the number of passes in the library pass sequence. For more information on the default library passes provided with VisualText, see Library Passes.

## Add Top Level Submenu

The available menu items in Add > Top Level function identically with those of the Add submenu. This menu provides "hooks" for embedding sequences of passes within folders.

## Add Top Level Library Pass Submenu

This is identical with the Add > Library Pass submenu. It provides a hook for placing a library pass within a folder. This will be in an upcoming release of VisualText™. The library passes in this submenu are discussed in Library Passes.

## View Submenu

Menu Item | Description
Concept Tree | Displays the concept tree of a parsed document in the Workspace. (Same as the View Concept Tree button.)
Final Tree | Displays the parse tree after the final pass of an analyzer sequence.
Entire Tree | Displays the full parse tree, starting at the root, assuming that the current selection in the Text Tab has been analyzed.
Log | Displays the text version of Entire Tree, the parse tree for the currently selected pass.
Tree Matches | Displays portion of the parse tree matching selected pass in the analyzer sequence.

## Ana Archive Submenu

Ana Archive is used to view and create archives of the analyzer sequence either on remote servers or on local machines. Archiving is used to create quick backups of your work and to facilitate communication between developers working on the same analyzers. To set archiving preferences, select Preferences under the File Menu and click on the Archiving tab.

Menu Item | Description
Archive Local | Launches a dialog box to create a local archive of the pass files in a zip file. The name of the archive defaults to the name of the current analyzer, suffixed with the current date and time.
