Attribute Dialog Box
See Also
You use the Attribute dialog box to define an attribute component in an XML schema file. You use an attribute to define an attribute.
The Attribute dialog box opens when you add a new attribute component. You can also open the Attribute dialog box by right-clicking an attribute node and choosing Customize from the pop-up menu.
- The title of the dialog box changes depending on the type of action you are performing:
- Create a new schema component: Attribute
- Modify an existing local component: Local Attribute Customizer
- Modify an existing global component: Global Attribute Customizer
This dialog box has the following fields:
- Name. Specifies the name of the attribute component. If you access the dialog box from the Structure property in a Properties dialog box or window, you cannot modify the Name field.
- Type. Specifies the type of the attribute component: Inline Simple Type or Use Existing Type. If you want to use an existing type, you must select that type in the list of types.
The IDE shows the description of your current selection below the list of types.
- Preview. Shows you the source code that the IDE will add to the schema file when you click OK.
