Creating Objects from an Object List

You can create most types of objects in object lists, available under the Model menu. Some property sheet tabs, such as a table's Columns tab or a class's Attributes or Operations tabs also contain object lists. Lists provide a method to quickly create multiple objects and change their properties simultaneously.

  1. Select Model > object type (or open an appropriate property sheet tab).
  2. Click the Add a Row tool or, if the list is ordered, the Insert a row tool.

    A new item is added at the end, or before the selected row, of the list.

  3. Enter an object name and code and, for link objects, a source and destination object.
  4. Repeat as necessary to create additional objects of the same type, and then click OK.
