You can change the attribute shown in a table column by using the corresponding 窶彳dge table heading窶 menu. These menus pop up when you click inside the column headings. To display a particular edge attribute in a column, select the corresponding menu item in the edge table heading menu. Each of these menus contains the following items:
窶「 Inp. name
窶「 Outp. name
窶「 Inp. code
窶「 Outp. code
窶「 Function
窶「 a
窶「 b
窶「 c
窶「 d
窶「 e
窶「 Inp. test
窶「 Outp. test
窶「 Inp. sim
窶「 Outp. sim
Only a few of these items correspond to attributes 窶徙wned窶 by the edges. These are:
窶「 Function
窶「 a
窶「 b
窶「 c
窶「 d
窶「 e
These contains the usual edge attributes you recognize from the 窶廢dit edge窶 dialog box.
The following attributes are 窶徙wned窶 either by the input or output nodes (or events) of the edges:
窶「 Inp. name
窶「 Outp. name
窶「 Inp. code
窶「 Outp. code
If you edit the contents of these columns, the new attributes are stored in the 窶徙wner窶 object, i.e., in the respective node (or event). This is true even if the 窶徙wner窶 is represented only by an alias.
The 窶廬np. name窶 and 窶廾utp. name窶 contain respectively the names of the input and the output nodes (or events) of the edge. Similarly, the 窶廬np. code窶 and 窶廾utp. code窶 contain respectively the codes of the input and the output nodes (or events) of the edge.
The next category contains attributes owned by the 窶徑ocal node representative窶, i.e., either the node (or event) itself, or an alias of this. In this category you find the following:
窶「 Inp. sim
窶「 Outp. sim
These two attributes contain respectively the 窶彜im.窶 attributes of the input and output node (or event) of the edge.
The edge table heading menus also contain two items which are not really attributes at all. These are:
窶「 Inp. test
窶「 Outp. test
If you include these in an edge table, the resulting table columns will be empty until you run a test simulation on the folder, by using the 窶弋est model窶 command in the 窶廴odel窶 menu. In rows corresponding to edges where with the 窶廬np. sim.窶 attribute is turned 窶徙n窶, you will then see the output value of the input node in the 窶廬np. test窶 column.
Similarly, in rows corresponding to edges where with the 窶廾utp. sim.窶 attribute is turned 窶徙n窶, you will see the input value of the output node in the 窶廾utp. test窶 column.
Note that if the output node has more than one input edge, the 窶廾utp. test窶 field will contain a combination of all the output values from these edges calculated according to the chosen algorithm and operators of this node.
The values shown in these columns are not stored permanently inside the objects. As soon as you run another test simulation, or simply close the folder, all the values are gone.
