Property

A Property is a named, typed attribute of Development Object that defines a characteristic or behavior of the object. Each property has a descriptive name, a literal name, a data type, and a value. If no value is specified, a default value may be used.

Each development object has a set of common properties and a set of pre-defined properties that are specific to the object. It is also possible to define custom properties for an object.

The literal name of a property is used to store the data in the Repository. For some properties, it is used to address it in ProcScript or JavaScript. Some properties are stored in their own Repository field, others are stored as a list in single Repository field.

For example, one property has the descriptive name Alignment, the literal name align , and a ValRep data type. The possible values the property can have are defined in the ValRep (Value-Representation) list
