C - Defining Relationship Attributes

When a relationship is defined, one or more attributes can be defined for the relationship (similar to repository attributes).

You need to first define a Relationship Attribute Group before you define relationship attributes (see B- Creating Relationship Attribute Group(s)).

To create a relationship attribute:

Procedure

  1. Click the icon in the Palette and then click in a (previously defined) Relationship Attribute Group.
  2. Enter the Relationship Attribute name.
  3. Relationship Attribute properties can be changed by clicking the relationship attribute and making edits in the Properties window General tab or by selecting the Relationship Attribute Group and making edits in the Properties Window Attributes tab.

Result

Note: Relationship attributes cannot be defined as Category Specific Attributes.

Relationship Attribute Properties

If you select a Relationship Attribute in the drawing pane, its properties are displayed in the Properties pane, General tab.

If you select the entire Relationship Attribute Group, details of all the contained relationship attributes are displayed in the Properties pane, Attributes Tab.
