Inherited values are drawn in grey whilst values set specifically for this note are drawn in black (for example, the 'dark poppy' value of the 'Color' attribute).

Except for read-only attributes, attributes may also be added/deleted or their values altered using the buttons at the bottom of the dialog. If focus is on an attribute name the buttons are:

  • New... Only available for User Attributes. This opens a Create Attribute dialog and results in a new attribute.
  • Delete. Only available for User Attributes. This immediately (no warning dialog) deletes the selected user attribute.
  • Edit. Opens the Edit Attribute dialog and allows the attribute name, data type and default value to be edited. For system attributes only the default value may be changed.

If focus is on an attribute value the buttons are:

  • New... Only available for User Attributes. This opens a Create Attribute dialog and results in a new attribute.
  • Use Defa... Use Default. This immediately (no warning dialog) sets the stored default value for the attribute.
  • Edit. Edit the current attribute's value via the Edit Attribute Value dialog.
