Dear Professor Chen,
I have an issue with analysis of the categories. I use data from Web of Science, but when I run the analysis in Citespace, it extracts and maps WoS categories, research areas and Web of Science index all together, which is the problem, because they overlap. I checked the source files, and these 3 kinds of data are in separate fields, so it should not be a database problem. Can you probably advice a solution for this?
All other analyses work fine.

I add screenshot of the network summary.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Iana

The current version uses WoS categories only. Are you using 6.1.R1?

Thank you, no, I used 5.8.R3.
I now installed 6.1.R1 and wanted to try again, but it does not show me the option for the analysis of categories at all.

Best regards
Iana
