Add a MetaProperty to a MetaClass

Revision as of 13:18, 21 August 2013 by KNO (Talk | contribs)

A MetaProperty can easily be added to a MetaClass via the Class Defails control by

  1. Open the control Class Details
  2. Connect the designated MetaClass to the control
  3. Add the MetaProperty either
    • by dropping the MetaProperty's instance onto the MetaClass
    • by using the Add MetaProperty button button in the menu; it is then necessary to browse through to the appropriate MetaProperty.

Using a Workflow

A new MetaProperty can be created and automatically assigned to a MetaClass via the Create new MetaProperty workflow. This workflow guides the user through the creation and configuration procedure of a MetaProperty and relates it to the selected MetaClass .

  1. Start Workflow “System / Create new MetaProperty ” from the context menu
  2. Set at least name, description and data type
  3. Change the MetaProperty ’s category if necessary
  4. Save the changes
  5. Optional configuration:
- Reference
- Selective list
- Unit item
- Format
- Validation flag
- Number of index keys
- Default values
- Initial values
