5.6.R2 is a work-in-progress version. Please post here if you encounter any issues.
Some previously broken functions are restored, including the following:
Cluster Explorer: The sentence summarization function.
Cluster View: The convex hull of a cluster. You can show/hide the convex hulls and cycle through different color options.
New additions:
Lens.org: Previously node labels in networks based on lens.org downloads are lens IDs, which can be resolved manually by right-clicking on a node. In 5.6.R2, CSV files downloaded from lens.org can be fully converted with CiteSpace using the Data>Import/Export>CSV. The basic procedure is essentially the same as before except Step 3 makes use of lens Scholarly API. To use this function, you will need to have a lens Scholarly API token and set an environment variable. Further instructions are available in CiteSpace.
Now you can generate cluster labels based on cited references' titles with data from Lens and Scopus.
You can also generate cluster labels based on Fields of Study or WoS Categories, which give a higher level of summary than other labeling options. I recommend you to try this one first especially if you are dealing with a new field. If you know a field inside out, then you probably don't really need this high-level roadsigns.
A few loose-ends:
The toolbar of icons is somehow messed up with some icons failed to show up. I will put it on my to-do list. In the meantime, all the functions have alternative paths in the menus so you can access them all. You can also drag the toolbar away from the usual interface to access the overly long array of buttons. Pres on the beginning of the toolbar and drag it away.
