Editing a Text Dataset

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

There are several ways to edit the text data, either:

 

click on the text data column on the log

double click on the text data object on the sidebar

select Edit > Text Data Name

or select Popup > Text Data Name

 

The menu item that will appear in the Edit, Popup, and sidebar will have the name of the column specified in the template for the log. For example, if the template specified the name of the column as "Remarks", the menu items will also be named "Remarks".This is used to distinguish between different text data columns within the same template.

 

After this the Text Data form will be displayed. This form has three tabs; one for the text data, one for memo data, and one for line data.

 

The name of the text dataset can be changed by clicking on the Edit Type button at the bottom of the Text tab. A new unique name can then be entered in the Edit Type form shown. Changing the name of the dataset will affect whether the dataset is displayed in the log. For the dataset to be displayed the template must contain a text data column with the same name.
