Appendix A Object Types Configuration Dialogs
3BDS011222-510 B 533
To add settings for a structure, click the Add button below the Structure drop-down
menu. In our example Functional Structure has been added. The list in the tab
contains object types that have some settings for the specified structure. Use the
Add button below the list to add an object type. In our example a Pump object type
is added.
Use the Propose when creating new child check box, to set the object type (or
object types in the group), to be explicitly proposed to a user in the New Object
dialog. If proposed object types exist, the user must mark the Show All check box in
the New Object dialog to see the other allowed but not proposed object types.
In the Child Rule area you determine how many child objects of the object type
(or object types in the group), there can be for instances of the object type. If the
max value is set to –1, the number of child objects are unlimited. If the min value is
greater than zero, then this number of child objects will automatically be created
below the instances.
The Allow other object types setting is for the specified structure. It determines
whether child objects of any object type are allowed for the instances, or if only the
types in the list are allowed.
When the Is Group column is marked (x), the added object type is in fact an object
type group. The result will be that settings will be done for all object types in the
group, see Figure 329.
