Connecting MetaAttributes to MetaAssociations
A MetaAssociation cannot be connected to a text type attribute. An attribute can be connected to one or several MetaAssociations. The "Order" attribute is connected to all MetaAssociations.
*A "Text" type attribute on a link is only accessible with certain tools such as the explorer, and not by others (diagrams, etc.).
To connect an attribute to a MetaAssociation:
1. In the Properties window of a MetaAssociation, select the MetaAttribute tab.
2. Click Connect and select the MetaAttribute.
*You can select several MetaAttributes.
3. Click Connect.
The selected MetaAttributes appear in the list of MetaAttributes of the MetaAssociation.
