None. |
Artifact Page |
Create a hyperlink to an artifact page for the current artifact type. This hyperlink is to an actual template that is used to generate the page. This target template must not have OPEN arguments. It uses parameters passed from the primary template. |
Navigation Tree – Adds a node for the hyperlink to the ProjectConsole navigation tree. Template field – Use this to override the template used when the hyperlink is clicked. For example, if the DISPLAY command is for Rose Class.Operation, by default the Rose/Operation template is used for generation. However, if you enter a different name in the Template field, a template with the name you enter is used instead. |
URL |
Create a hyperlink to the actual value that is the result of the DISPLAY command. This hyperlink can be to a document or to a web page. |
Proxy URL – The hyperlink is proxied through the web server, in which case the target of the hyperlink would be expected to reside on the server machine. Display in New Window – Displays the result of the hyperlink in a new browser window. Navigation Tree – Adds a node for the hyperlink to the ProjectConsole navigation tree. Display Simple Name – Displays a simple name for the URL hyperlink instead of the entire URL string. |
If you choose a graphic attribute in the Select field, you see the following modifiers:
The Scaling box lets you decide whether to display the graphic As Is or Scale To Fit.
If you specify As Is, ProjectConsole displays the graphic exactly as it appears in the source. If the graphic is wider or taller than the page margins allow, ProjectConsole shrinks the graphic, maintaining the aspect ratio.
If you specify Scale To Fit, ProjectConsole stretches or shrinks the graphic so that it fits the dimensions you specify for Width and Height. This option does not maintain the aspect ratio.
NOTE: These entries are for the Scale-To-Fit option.
To specify the horizontal size at which you want your graphic imported, type a number in inches in the Width text box.
To specify the vertical size at which you want your graphic imported, type a number in inches in the Height text box.
