A User Defined Attribute Group (UDTG) element must be created below a User Defined Type Group World (UDTW) element. To create a UDTG element, on the Home tab in the Create group and select Create from the displayed drop-down list select UDTG: User defined attribute group. A UDTG element is created and displayed in the Dictionary Explorer.

When a new element is created in the dictionary hierarchy using the Dictionary Explorer and if the Current Element Editor window is open, it automatically updates to display the default attributes for that element.
Note: If the Current Element Editor window is not open, right-click in any Explorer window and select Current Element Editor.


After the creation of a new UDTG element, use the Current Element Editor window to populate the attributes in the Current Element Editor.
Note:
Dependent upon the attribute, other related attributes are enabled or disabled accordingly.
