Object Type Group Creation
Object types are collected into object type groups placed in the Object Type
Structure. The following steps have to be done to create a new object type group,
in our case named Cell Information Object Type Group.
1. Go to the Object Type Structure and select the root object Object Types.
2. Using the New Object dialog, make a new aspect object of the type Object
Type Group below the object Object Types, and name it Cell Information
Object Type Group.
The object type group is itself an instance of an object type that only allows object
type groups, object types and aspect groups to be created below it.
Object Type Creation
Object types are created within an object type group. To create the Cell Information
Object Type, do the following steps:
1. Select the Cell Information Object Type Group object.
2. Using the New Object dialog, make a new aspect object of the type
Object Type, and name it Cell Information.
When the Cell Information object is created it gets the following aspects.
