Mentions Sidebar Widget
The Mentions Sidebar Widget will display the Entities associated with the articles from the current context. Typically, it is used to navigate within a news feed.
There are two versions of the Mentions Sidebar, one for Apollo and a second for RegLens. The difference is in the order of the Entity Types where in RegLens the regulatory metadata types are at the top of the list and in Apollo they are at the bottom of the list.
Navigation
Navigation within the Mentions Sidebar Widget is used to set context for the dashboard being displayed. The entities are displayed by frequency inside each available entity type. Clicking on an entity type opens up the menu for that entity type.
Click on the box next to the topics you would like to use in the context. Once you click one, navigation buttons will appear at the bottom of the widget to allow you to ADD FILTERS TO CONTEXT or REPLACE CONTEXT WITH FILTERS. Clicking on your choice will reset the context based on which button you push.
