Using Predefined Properties

Predefined properties can be defined at several levels:

  • At representation level using the Edit View Properties dialog box.

  • At table representation level using the Edit Table Representation Properties dialog box.

  • At row level using the Edit Row Properties dialog box.

  • At cell level using the Edit Cell Properties dialog box.

All inspectors display a property table that you can use to assign predefined properties.

Generic Properties Table

You must select the property you want to assign, its type and its value. If the property is an indexed property, you also have to provide an index.

Note

In the Server/Views mapping, indexes begins at 1.

You can specify your own properties in these tables. If you choose to do so, you must supply your own mapping to handle those properties in a derived class of IlsSwRepresentation, IlsSwTable or IlsSwRow. See Extending the Server/Views Mapping for more information.

Note

  1. When you specify an indexed property for a row, you specify in fact a cell property.

  2. String constants must be enclosed in double quotes.
