Overriding CA 2E Default Field Attributes

Some of the default values of the field types may be overridden, both at the field level and the device design level:

• Field values—Describe the attributes of each individual field in the data model. They are used as the initial defaults when new fields are created. You can change these values with the Edit Fields panel.
• Device field values—Describe the attributes of each individual instance of the field on a device design. You can override some attribute values, such as the field heading text and validation conditions, using the Edit Device Field panel.
