Editing attributes of network objects
You can edit attributes of network objects in the list of network objects of a network object type. For some network object types, you can select attributes in the <Name network object type> window.
The maximum value for all integer input values is 4 294 967 295.
Editing attributes in a list
1. On the Lists menu, click the desired entry.

Tip: Alternatively, you can show the list via the following functions:
|
The list with the attributes of the network objects of the network object type opens.
By default, the column titles show the short names of the attributes. The short names are abbreviations of long names (Showing short or long names of attributes in column headers).
By default, you can edit the list (Using lists).
Note: In lists, you can use the Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list). |
2. Edit the attributes (Selecting and editing data in lists):
Attributes in the Editing <Name network object type> window
For some network objects, a <Name Network object type> window is automatically opened when you define a network object and have selected that you want the program to automatically open the Edit dialog after object creation (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object). You can enter entry attributes in this window. By default, the entry attributes are also displayed in lists.
For network objects that have already been defined, use functions in the following elements to open a window in which you can edit the attributes:
- In the network objects list of the network object type (Functions available in the shortcut menu of the row header)
- In the Network Editor (Showing attribute values of a network object in the Network editor)
While the simulation is running, network objects, attributes and attribute values cannot be edited or can only be edited to a very limited extent. When, during a simulation run, you open the <Name network object type> window to display attributes of network objects, a message is displayed informing you of the limited editing options.
