Hello together,

how can i import an existing class from an existing ontology to a new ontology which created in Top-Braid EDG? 
I develop in my own ontology new classes etc. but i need to import only some object from different existing ontologies in Top-Braid EDG.

Thanks.

The simplest thing to do is import the ontology in an EDG Ontologies collection and then delete whatever you do not want.

There is no out-of-the-box filtering for imports.

Also remember that, as an ontologist, Turtle is your friend. I often copy and paste between ontologies in an IDE or text editor and then load that into EDG. 

EDG has a very useful Export RDF to Sorted Turtle which also means you can diff versions of ontologies using text tools, git, etc.

Cheers,
David
