Availability: All plans.

Summary

Project Documents is the project’s full inventory, opened from Project Documents In the project menu. It takes the whole workspace rather than a pane, and it holds two tables behind two tabs: LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS, which lists every description Trace has plotted with its readouts, and DOCUMENTS, which lists the files those descriptions came out of. Close it with the cross at the right of the tab strip to go back to the map.

Usage notes

One row per description, headed Processed Legal Descriptions. A description with no name reads (Unnamed).

Column What it holds
Legal Description Name The description’s name, editable from the row menu
Document Name The document it was read out of
Closed? (Relative Closure %) The relative closure figure, colour coded
Overlapping (Count) A count of overlapping calls
OCR Pass (Confidence) How confident the scan was, colour coded
Actions View, Download, and the row menu

Reading the closure column

The colour is the fast read on closure: darkest green at 98 percent and above, green from 95 to 98, orange from 90 to 95, and red below 90. Use it to spot the description worth opening, not as the verdict. The closure report carries the figures that matter, including linear misclosure and the precision ratio, and it is the one to quote. See the closure report and how closure works.

Reading the OCR column

A green check at 95 percent and above, an amber dash from 90 to 95, a red mark below 90. Low confidence means the scan struggled with the page, so the calls are worth reading against the original before you rely on the plot.

A description you pasted as text shows a dash, with a tooltip saying so. Nothing was scanned, so there is no confidence figure to give.

The overlapping column

This column is not a live check in this release. It shows a count with a check or an error mark, but the count is not yet reading measured geometry, so do not treat a zero as a finding. The checks Trace shows covers the readouts that are, and gaps and overlaps between neighbouring tracts are read off the map.

The documents table

One row per document, headed Documents.

Column What it holds
Document Name The document’s name
Description The document’s description, where it has one
Document Type What the AI took the document to be
Legal Descriptions How many descriptions Trace found in it
Actions View, Download, and the layers toggle

Row actions

Action Table What it does
View Both Returns you to the project map
Download Legal descriptions Saves that description as a text file
Download Documents Saves the uploaded original, or every description in the document as one text file when there is no original
Add to Layers Documents Puts the document’s plots on the map and redraws the project
Remove from Layers Documents Takes them off again. The same control, switched by whether the document is already placed
More then Rename Legal Description Legal descriptions Renames the description

Removing a document from the layers clears the project’s undo history, so undo will not bring the plots back. Add the document again instead.

The layers toggle needs edit access and is greyed out without it. View and Download are open to anyone who can see the project.

Uploading and deleting from the tables

Upload Documents at the top of the documents table opens the file picker without sending you back to Add Document. Files picked here join the same queue and process the same way. See Plot from a document.

With edit access each document row carries a checkbox. Tick one or more and Delete Documents appears; it names how many you are deleting and asks you to confirm. Deleting a document removes its descriptions from the project with it.

Paging

Both tables show 10 rows a page and offer 5, 10 or 25. Both sort on any column except Actions.
