Panel/Report Display Attributes

Field attributes determine how a field displays in a device design. Attributes include such features as reverse image, highlighting, and underlining.

For each CA 2E field data type, you can set default values for various field properties, such as length and edit codes. Any new fields will be given these values.

You set default values for field properties with the Edit Field Attribute Defaults panel. Some values on this panel are protected, such as the data type. You can change other values. Changing the value does not affect existing fields. The value is the default for any new fields created in the model after the change.

You can change other default attributes at the individual field level with the CA 2E Edit Default Display Attributes (YEDTDFTATR) command.
