Creating Attribute Group
From the Groups tab, select the New button next to the Group Name drop-down list.
- Enter the proposed group name within the text box and click on the OK button.
- Next, to add an individual attribute to the group, click the Add button below the report view.
- In the Add Attribute dialog, enter the attribute tag, prompt and value (optional). You can also set the options for attribute mode i.e. Invisible, Constant, Verify and Preset.
Notes
- Attribute tag values are forced to uppercase and spaces are not permitted.
- Attribute modes: Invisible specifies that attribute values are not displayed or printed when you insert the block (ATTDISP overrides Invisible mode). Constant gives attributes a fixed value for block insertions. Verify prompts you to verify that the attribute value is correct when you insert the block. Preset sets the attribute to its default value when you insert a block containing a preset attribute.
- To edit an existing attribute’s tag, prompt, value and/or mode see Help topic Editing Group Attributes.
- If an attribute group is deleted, its corresponding contents (attributes) are also deleted.
