This task shows how you can filter
the properties of an object. |
 |
Filtering the properties means you
can choose to display or hide any of the properties shown in the Properties
dialog box. You can only filter properties for objects that are unique to
the Design application you have open. Note that any changes you make will
apply to all objects that have this property. To make changes for a class
or subclass only see Changing the Display Order
of Properties. The following scenario features Hanger Design, but the
process applies to all applications, including Diagrams. |
 |
1. |
Click the
Filter button
on the Properties dialog box
(Edit
or display properties of an object). The
Attribute Filter box displays.

An X in the column Show means the attribute is displayed in
the Properties dialog box. An X in the column Computed means the
attribute is computed. If you check the checkbox Show Only Attributes with
Value, then only attributes that have a value will display in the
Properties dialog box. |
|
2. |
Click on each property to toggle
between Display and Hide. An X next to a property means it is displayed.
The settings will be retained when you open the Properties dialog box
again. |
