To edit in the module window, double-click the attribute
that you want to edit, and then change its value. To change the value
of an attribute for several objects or for all the objects in a module,
use the object properties sheet. To edit the value of an attribute,
you must have modify access to both the object and the attribute value.
- To append text to the end of the text in the main column, select
an object and start typing.
- To edit the next object in the module, press Shift+Enter.
- To edit the attribute in the next column, press Ctrl+A.
- To accept the edits you made to the current object, press Ctrl+M,
or click another object or attribute.
- To discard the edits you made to the current object, press Ctrl+D.
- To change the value of the current attribute to the default value
for that attribute, click . If the attribute does
not have a default value, the current value is deleted.
- To edit the Object Heading for the current object, press Ctrl+H.
- To edit the Object Text for the current object, press Ctrl+T.
To format text, use the icons on the formatting toolbar. You can
apply bold, italics, underline, strikethrough, superscript, and subscript.
You can also apply bullets to lists, and increase or decrease the
indentation of text in columns.
To cut, copy, and paste text, use the usual options in the Edit menu
or the usual shortcuts (Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C,
and Ctrl+V).
You can also copy text from other applications and paste it into Rational® DOORS® attributes. For example, you can copy
text from a Microsoft Word
document and paste it into a Rational DOORS object.
Note: Rich text tables
are not supported in Rational DOORS. You can copy a rich text
table into Rational DOORS, for example from Word or Microsoft Excel, but this is
not supported. The formatting of the rich text table will not be preserved
if you copy it back to Word or Excel. Also, when you copy the Omega
symbol from a FrameMaker document, it loses its font family, and is
pasted into Rational DOORS as the letter w.
Objects with unsaved changes have a red change bar
. To save changes, press Ctrl+S.
