Editing a Cascading Attribute Rule
The Edit Rule window allows you to edit any part of an existing cascading attribute rule:
• Change the driver attributes selected for the If or And If conditions, and the values selected for each.
• Add or remove And If conditions.
• Change the driven attribute selected for the Then clause, and option for Is clause. For Enumerated Value List option, select values from Select Values: dialog box.
Only locally created rules can be edited;
rules inherited from a parent type cannot be edited.
(To edit a single
If or
And If condition, see
Editing a Cascading Attribute Rule Condition.)
To edit a cascading attribute rule, complete the following steps:
1. In
edit mode, launch
Edit Rule window by selecting
Edit Rule from the right-click actions menu of a
Then clause leaf node for the rule in the
Cascading Attributes tree.
2. Update the attributes and selected values for the If condition, any And If conditions, the Then clause, and the Is clause as needed. The dynamic rule display pane at the top of the Edit Rule window updates as you make changes.
3. Click OK.
If the rule edit would cause a circular dependency, an error message displays and the rule is not edited.

While the edits to the rule are displayed in the Cascading Attributes tree, they are not persisted until you click Done or Save on the Manage Types window to exit edit mode. |
