How *ALLOBJ and Model Lists Differ

Technically, the All Objects list is not really a model object list; however, it is often useful to think of it as a list. In general, you can use the Edit Model Object List panel to work with the All Objects List as you would a named model object list. However, since the All Objects list represents actual model objects, note the following exceptions.

You can delete a model object, but you cannot delete a list entry. In other words, you can use option 24, but not option 4.

You cannot add a model object to the All Objects list since that requires creating a model object.

While the All Objects list contains all active model objects, named model object lists typically represent a subset of all model objects in the model.
