Edit List
For the type of attribute that you select in the Type column, the Edit
List dialog allows you to further define the allowable values for
an attribute. Specify a list of unique values which you must select from
for the relevant attribute. The format of these values must be compatible
with the value selected in the Type column.
When you select a value for the relevant attribute in eCADSTAR,
the values specified in this dialog are listed in the relevant drop-down list,
in the specified order. This dialog is launched when you point the cursor
in the List column, in the Attribute
Manager dialog, and then click the displayed
button.
