A compact outline of every theme, code and quote, read like the contents page of your analysis.
Used in phases 4 and 5, reviewing themes and defining themes
Open a code to see the quotes coded to it.
Quotes sit under their code, in the order of their illustrativeness score.
The file tree lists your coding as an indented outline, like folders on a computer. Each theme has a coloured dot beside its name, each code and sub-code a smaller outlined dot, and each quote a silver dot with its text in a quieter colour.
It is the densest of the three views and the quickest to scan. When you want to check that every quote sits under the right code, or count how much support a code has, the file tree puts it all in one column.
Use it for a careful pass through every quote.
Within a code, quotes marked as preferred come first, then the rest by their illustrativeness score from 5 down to 1.
A quote coded to a theme with no code appears directly under the theme.
Quotes with only a candidate theme are shown under that working theme until you decide. Quotes with neither are filed under Uncategorised, which makes them easy to find.
