Displaying and Editing Information in the Grid Editor

Go Up to Session 11: Using the Grid Editor

For purposes of this tutorial, open the grid editor of the business process diagram we created earlier.

In the Model View, right-click the diagram node labeled Order Picking and select Grid Editor…. The grid editor opens as a tabbed view.

The grid editor lists all elements in the diagram and is categorized by object type. Each element displays the object type, the name, a description field, and a notes field.

You can edit the name, description, and note for each record in this view by clicking once on the text in the cell. You can copy and paste text in the Description or Notes fields from another application such as Microsoft^® Word.

Open the Property View for each record by selecting a record and pressing Alt+Enter. You can then edit the properties, view the impact analysis hierarchy, create a link, and create a usage.
