A new Attributes Utility replaces the previous Query Attributes and Attributes forms; it combines the functions of both and also enables attributes to be edited if access rights permit. Attributes that are not editable are shown with a grey background; feedback is given for inappropriate attribute values. The form displays the attributes of the current database element either in a list or by category: see pictures below.
The form allows the user to edit attributes, where appropriate, and is available in all modules. It replaces the old PML Query Attributes form and the old C# Attributes form.
The popup menu provides various new functions such as an ability to set the current element to a reference attribute value. The details vary between modules and are documented in the appropriate manuals.
