Below you see a screenshot of a document opened in the Annotator. The '''document text''' is to the right, and in the middle of the screen there is a number of '''variables''' for coding on the '''article level'''.  Each variable has a '''coding field''' where you can enter information. What exactly you can enter here (e.g. whether you can type in text freely or select an option from a list) depends on the settings in the coding scheme. In the example shown here, you select the value for the first variable 'Article topic' from a list, the second and third variables are boxes that you tick or not, and for the last variable, you select a numerial value from a list that ranges from -1 to 1. If you enter a wrong value in one of the coding fields (e.g. you type a word in a field for numerical values), AmCAT will show an error message, and you cannot save your codings.
