Assigning semantic types to icons

You can also assign entity semantic types to icons in order to override the default semantic type for the entity type. The semantic type for the icon will be used for records where the default icon type is overridden.

Procedure

  1. Select Tools > Database Design > Semantic Types.
  2. Click the Icons tab to display the Icons page.
  3. Locate the icon that you want to assign.
  4. If there is no direct match between the name of the icon and the names (or synonyms) of the semantic types, search for the semantic type in the usual way. See Searching for semantic types.
  5. Select the required semantic type and click Assign. The name of the semantic type is then displayed on the Icons page.
