Different views of the data provided to the widget

Overview

There are a number of ways of retrieving queried data from an IWidgetContext or IResultSet.

The IWidgetContext API allows for filtering of top documents within the GUI framework, eg containing a specific set of entities (eg click on one of the bars in the graph in the "Significance" widget). This sub-set is called the filtered documents.

The IWidgetContext API lets you select which of the document sets to aggregate over.

For more information, see section Overview of Documents and Aggregations.
