If you want some of the fields of a record to be represented as attributes in an
entity or link type, you must define the attribute classes.
-
Select the attribute class:
- To define a new attribute class, select display the Attributes dialog.
- To edit an attribute class, right-click on the attribute class in the
tree view of the Types Page and select Edit.
- To copy an existing attribute class, right-click on the attribute class
in the tree view of the Types Page and select Copy. A
copy of the attribute class is created below the existing attribute class in
the tree view.
-
Define the general properties of the attribute class on the General page.
-
When you have defined the general settings, click on the Properties tab to
define more detailed properties.
-
When you have finished defining the attribute class, click
OK.
A warning message appears if the attribute class is being used by any other
fields.
