Modify Attributes
An attribute is a data item that specifies information for an XML element. An attribute
must be a child of an attribute set. For more information, see “Edit Attribute Sets” on
page 8-20.
Note: The information in the Help area of the Properties pane of an attribute describes
the set to which the attribute belongs.
Edit Attribute Sets
An attribute set consists of a group of attributes. Selecting an attribute set in the Outline
pane on the left causes the Properties pane to list the attributes that belong to that set.
To edit a specific attribute, expand the attribute set in the Outline pane and select the
attribute you want to edit.
To edit the attribute set, type text in the Inherit attribute sets area of the Properties
pane.
An example of an attribute set is Formal Object Properties, a data item in the
Property Sets category of the default print stylesheet for PDF documents.
Here is an example of the Report Explorer showing the Formal Object Properties
attribute set in the Properties pane.
