|
[Models] |
Contain text items for metaclasses, collections and attributes available to each model, for which you must provide translations. Example: Action provides the text for an attribute of a process in the Business Process Model. |
|
Common Objects |
Contains text items for metaclasses, collections and attributes available to all models, for which you must provide translations. Example: Diagram provides the text for a diagram in any model. |
For each item the name is given, and you must provide a translation in the Localized name field. This value is retrieved by the templates you have specified in the Profile category to generate default report titles (see Report Titles Category).
For metaclasses only, the linguistic variables you have specified (see Profile/Linguistic Variables Category) are listed along with the results of their application to the translations given in the Localized name field. If necessary, you can override the automatically generated values by entering your own text in the Value column, which will depress the User-Defined button to indicate that the value is no longer generated.
