Edit existing MBO operations, attributes, relationships, and so on, as well as Mobile Application Diagram properties from the Properties view.

  2. Display and edit any of these properties from the Properties view by clicking in the Mobile Application Diagram.
    Properties view context
    Edit Action
    Mobile business object Click inside the MBO (or inside the title area), but do not click an attribute or operation.
    Attributes compartment Click the attributes compartment to show a different representation than the 'mobile business object' context – the Data source, Definition, Attribute Mapping, Parameters, and Roles tabs are laid out as vertical tabs instead of horizontal tabs.
    Note: If the mobile business object attributes are not bound to a data source, only the Data Source, Attributes, and Roles tabs display.
    Attribute Click an MBO attribute.
    Operation Click an MBO operation.
    Relationship Click the line (relationship) that connects two MBOs.
    Mobile Application Diagram Click inside the Mobile Application Diagram, but outside any object it contains.
  3. Modify the properties and save your changes. You can select File > Save, enter CTRL-s, or select the Workbench save button (the floppy disk icon).
    Any changes you make in the Properties view are immediately reflected in the Mobile Application Diagram, however you must save the changes or they are lost once you exit the Mobile Application Diagram.
