This tab displays the label and
the Comment in read/write mode. It enables
you to modify the generation parameters definition and provides access
to the other tabs of the instance.
Description of the tab
Three sections
are not tabs themselves. They are displayed in the
Overview tab
only:
Alerts and Action Items,
General
information, and
Generation parameters definition (on
some entities).
All the other sections provide links to the corresponding
editor tabs.
If information is displayed in each section, you
can do either of the following tasks:
- Click it if it is displayed as a link. You automatically switch
to where the information has been specified.
- Or click the More button to switch to the
corresponding tab.
If no information is displayed in the section, click
the sym located in front of the section name. It gives you access
to the More button. Click it to access the
corresponding tab.
The sections of the tab
- Alerts and Action Items
- Any problem related to the current instance (for example, if the
instance calls another instance that has been deleted) is displayed
here as a link. If you click this link, you automatically switch to
the Problems view, where the line corresponding
to the error is highlighted. The error is clearly explained and you
can correct it.
General information displays
the following fields:
- Work context
- The work context is the project from which you have opened the
editor of the current instance. This project constitutes the starting
point for the resolution of the dynamic links and references between
the instances contained in the various projects of the location. The
projects hierarchy declared in the design build path is explored in
an upward direction.
If you click Hierarchy,
you can see a partial view of the design build path. In this view,
the project which constitutes the work context is the lowest project
of the hierarchy.
More information can be found in the following
topics: The work context and The design build path.
- Name
- The instance name is displayed in read-only mode. Ut is entered
when the instance is created, and it cannot be modified later.
- Label

a search criterion for a subsequent search.
- Definition
- This section contains the following fields:
- The Comment field, in a read/write mode.
This field is used to generate the specific error messages. You must
