Click a theme in the Filter by Theme list to filter the comments by a specific theme. The sentiment breakdown, intent breakdown, and co-occurrence themes sections also update to reflect details for the selected theme.

Filter by Sentiment, Intent, or Co-Occurring Themes
Easily filter the comments by sentiment, intent, or co-occurrence theme by clicking an option in the Sentiment Breakdown, Intent Breakdown, or Co-Occurrence Themes sections, respectively. These filters narrow the scope of the comments to those expressing specific sentiments (positive, neutral, negative), specific intents (Praise & Approval, Should & Suggest, Wants & Preferences, Needs & Concerns, Angry & Unfair), or specific co-occurring themes. You can apply multiple filters.
