Changing Display Attributes
You can change the way in which objects are displayed in SmarTeam - Web Editor. This process can be performed on a per class basis.
Note: To use Preferences, Display Attributes and other features, the database must include the SmartWeb30 mechanism. When you upgrade a database in the Data Model Designer you must manually select the SmartWeb30 mechanism so that the database supports the Display Attributes feature.
To change the display attributes for a specific class:
- Select an object of the desired class.
- From the Actions menu, select Display Attributes.
The Display Attributes window appears.
Note: You can also access the Display Attributes window by clicking Preferences
in the main toolbar.
- Select the Class Name of the object that you need to change.
The Display Attributes window appears for the selected Class Name.
