This dialog contains Attribute names and colours for both user-defined attributes and System Attributes.
Locating this option
Available from: Setup menu > Colours > Attributes tab
Using the Attribute Colours Tab
Display Attributes with No Value
The Display Attributes with No Value check box enables you to see attribute positions even if the attribute is not currently satisfied on the item it is attached to. This is mostly useful when defining a footprint, where the attribute position acts as a place holder, to be satisfied when the footprint is used in a design.
Force Display Of Attribute Positions
The Force Display Of Attribute Positions check box will force the display of any attribute positions. This enables you to see attribute positions without changing all the other check boxes in the above grids, or changing the status of each attribute position. This is useful for visually finding attribute positions. Normally, this option should be unchecked.
New Attributes
The New Attributes colour box enables you to specify the display colour for any new attribute names which are subsequently introduced.
