- Search for the name you want to add to the synonym list
- Using the optios buttons, select the option:
"Add a key entry" - if you want to create a new synonym list

"Add another entry" - if you want to add a new entry to an existing synonym list

- Click "Add Name" button
In case you
selected to add a key entry Syngraph will open in Synonym display form a new synonym list with one entry: the chosen key entry

If Syngraph does not find match, the name will be imposed on a red rectangle. You must set the appropiate color code.
