You can change the base type of an attribute type, any
associated settings, and the access rights.
Before you begin
To edit an attribute type, you must have modify access to
both the attribute type and the module, and the module must be open
in exclusive edit mode.
Procedure
- Click .
- Select the type that you want to edit, and then click Edit.
Base types are read-only.
- Make the changes that you want. For more information
about the options, click Help.
Note: - If you edit a range of values to make it more restrictive, users
are prompted to update existing values that are out of range the next
time they edit the object.
- If you replace a value for an enumerated attribute type, Rational® DOORS® updates the value of any attribute that
had that enumerated value.
- If you delete a value from an enumerated attribute type, Rational DOORS updates the value of any attribute that
had that value. The value is set to the default value of the attribute.
If the attribute does not have a default value, the value is deleted
and left empty.
