When using the “Filter for” option in the drop-down box under “Headword” in the Lexicon Edit view, is it possible to reference a Natural Class that has been defined in one’s project?
That is, if one selects Filter for in this drop-down box
this dialog box comes up:
Can one reference a Natural Class (e.g., C or V or …) in the Regular Expression that you type into that search box? I suspect it’s not possible, but if it is, I know a user who would be glad to know about it (and how to do it).
Thanks,
Kevin

Current technology makes it possible to provide those translating into just about any language with both a dictionary and a thesaurus in the target language, the standard tools of the trade for professional translators, so why are mother-tongue translators in minority languages still expected to do their work without these tools? Ask me about Rapid Word Collection after reading about it at rapidwords.net.

Thanks, Ron. Those are very helpful suggestions.
So based on what you wrote, it seems that the answer to my question is “Not exactly, but you can create a sort of natural class in the Regular Expression by listing all of the class members inside square brackets. You just can’t refer to it with the Natural Class label defined in the Natural Class section of the project (e.g., C or V or …).” Is that an accurate interpretation of what you wrote?

Wouldn't it be simpler to provide a set of preconfigured natural classes that can be edited or expanded by end user? This was in Shoebox from the very beginning. I think this would be much more accessible for most humans, for whom regular expression nomenclature is pretty opaque.
