Align - EDL Attribute Property
The Status attribute has both the GRID and GRAPH properties set to YES. Setting
GRAPH to YES implies the status of the CPU entity will be analyzed. In the example,
the Status attribute is paired with an attribute called OpState.
When an attribute has a state associated with it, as does the Status attribute, the
STATEPAIR YES and STATERULE UseStateGraphState properties are set. In this
case, the status property is special in that its associated state is earmarked as the
operational state of the object, as indicated by STATEISOP YES.
The user-defined Busy attribute has its GRID and GRAPH properties enabled, so the
busy value has a state assigned to it by the ASAP Client. The Busy value is normalized
with its GraphMax property. Because Busy is a value from 0 through 100 percent, the
correct GraphMax value is 100.
Align - EDL Attribute Property
Align Left | Right | ""
The Align attribute property defines how the ASAP Client aligns the display of defined
attributes. If no align option is specified, the client uses its own set of rules to
determine how best to align attribute data. The Align attribute property might not affect
certain user defined attributes.
Align Left causes the Client to left align data for the associated attribute.
Align Right causes the Client to right align data for the associated attribute.
Align “” causes the client to align data based on internal best-fit client rules.
