Editing and Attributes for the File Layout

Use

You use these functions to edit the file layout.

Features

Create

The Create function is valid for all objects (block, structure, field).

You must assign an existing interface format to the file layout.

If the file layout does not yet have any objects (block, structure, field), choose Create.

If you want to add additional objects to an existing file layout, place the cursor on an object of the same type (block, structure, field) and choose Create.

Delete

The Delete function is valid for all objects (block, structure, field).

Select the object to be deleted and choose Delete.

The objects located below this object in the hierarchy will also be deleted.

If the object to be deleted (structure, field) is used elsewhere in the file layout, it will NOT be deleted there. If you have deleted all occurrences of the object, the Interface Toolbox will query whether you want to delete the object from the object list. If the object remains in the object list, you can use the object again at any time by choosing Insert.

For an alphabetical list of all structures or fields, see Structures or Fields.

Move

The Move function is valid for all objects (block, structure, field).

Select the object you wish to move.
Place the cursor on the object in front of which you wish to insert the object and choose Move.

Insert

The Insert function is allowed for structures and fields.

You can use structures and fields several times in the file layout.

Attributes

The Attributes function creates the link with the interface format assigned to the file layout.
