The "Attribute Flags" rule contains a list of Finder flags that are associated with all files. These Finder flags contain information about a file and are set upon creation of a file. A flag may be turned "On" or turned "Off". You can make either of these selections or choose that you "Don't Care" if a flag is either on or off. Below is a description of each flag.
Locked - A flag
is set to determine if the file is locked or not. Locked files cannot be easily
deleted.
Custom Icon - A flag is set if a file has a custom icon associated
with it.
Stationery Pad - A flag is set if a file is a stationery pad. Stationery
pads are special documents created as templates.
Invisible - A flag is set if the file is invisible.
Alias - A flag is set if the file is an alias file.
These flags are often unknown to the user. That is why the 'Drag Hinting' feature in this situation is very useful. Once you drag a file to the "Attribute Flags" rule, the appropriate settings will automatically be set.
