To view or edit attribute group's properties, double-click its Browser or list entry. The property sheet tabs and fields listed here are those available by default, before any customization of the interface by you or an administrator.
The General tab contains the following properties:
|
Property |
Description |
|---|---|
Name/Code/Comment |
Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. Neither the name nor code should contain colons. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field. Name and Code are read-only for references to attribute groups. |
Stereotype |
Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file. |
|
Reference |
[for references to attribute groups only] Name of an attribute group from the current model or any model opened in the workspace, which must be a qualified name. If you select an attribute group from another model, a shortcut is created with the referencing attribute group. A reference allows you to reuse an attribute group with all its properties without having to define it again. When a reference is defined, the name and code properties are grayed. The name and code are those of the target attribute group |
|
ID |
ID of the attribute group. Its value must be of type ID and unique within the model containing this attribute group |
Keywords |
Provide a way of loosely grouping objects through tagging. To enter multiple keywords, separate them with commas. |
This tab lists the attributes and attribute groups associated with the attribute group. For information about the tools available on this tab for adding attributes and attribute groups, see Creating an Attribute.
