Defining Feature Attributes
- Under the feature library name, in the left-hand part of
the Feature Library Editor window, select the first feature
name, right-click on it and select
Insert Attribute
. A new
dialog box opens where you can define the first attribute
for the feature:
- Enter a name for this attribute in the
Attribute Name
field
- Indicate the type of the attribute. There are three types of
attributes: Menu, Numeric and Text. If the attribute con-
sists of a list of statements that the field operator will
have to choose from, check
Menu
, if it refers to a number
the field operator will have to enter, check
Numeric
, and if
the feature refers to a description or any other alphanu-
meric string that the field operator will have to type in,
check
Text
.
- Then click
Add
to add another attribute for the feature, or
Close
after the last attribute has been defined.
- Select the second feature on the left, right-click on it,
select
Insert Attribute
and then define all the feature’s
attributes as explained above. Click the
Close
button
when it’s done.

defined for all the features present in the library
