Editing Attribute Data (General)
The following dialog box is used to enter or edit attribute data:
NOTE: The same Attributes Dialog is used to enter data for all object types. This
section discusses the general operation of this dialog. The following
sections will discuss each object type.
Basic Procedure
To edit the contents of a field, simply select the field name in the list. The
current contents of the field will be displayed in the editable text box. Edit
this value using the normal text editing techniques. Select another field or
press the Done button if you are finished editing. If the data you typed
exceeded the maximum length for the field, or if it contained invalid char-
acters for the field, then you will be asked to correct the data.
You can view or edit as many fields as desired while in this dialog. No
changes are made to the actual design data until you click the Done button.
Clicking Cancel will abandon all changes made while in this dialog.
Default Value
Clicking the Use Default Value button sets the value for the selected field
to the default value stored with the symbol. If this button is inactive
(grayed out) then the value is already the default value, or no default value
is present. Only devices and pins can have default values.
