Table 1. Link list attribute settings
Setting Name Description
Value Type A list of the type Text results in an attribute with a list of text fields. A list of the type Link results in an attribute with a list of links.
Allow Links to All Other Workspaces If this check box is cleared, you must manually specify the modules in other workspaces that users can link to. If the check box is selected, users can link to all modules in all workspaces.
Allowed Target Modules To select the workspace and modules that the users can link to, click the Click to edit link. Select the modules in the workspace to use as target modules.
Link to Views To link to certain views instead of modules, click the Edit link and select the views to display for this list link attribute.
Note: The users who use this link must have access to the workspace and modules that you set as targets.
Sort Links In Tree Order If this check box is selected, the links in the list are sorted in the following order: Workspace (alphabetic order), Module (Module list order), and Element (Tree order). If you sort elements according to an attribute on the module level, that order is used for the elements instead of the tree order. If this check box is cleared, the links are displayed in the order that the elements were added.
Add New Links Specify whether new link items must be added at the top or at the bottom of the list.
Visual Link Color Select the color of the links that connect the elements in the Gantt chart and the Relational Graph. This setting does not affect the color of other links.

If a list link attribute is mandatory, the element cannot be saved unless a value for this attribute is set. You cannot remove all the links from a mandatory list; the list must contain at least one link.
Change Log Log Changes If this check box is selected, history logs are created for each change of the attribute value.
