View Calculated Attributes

Attribute values of an element are often calculated as a result of "Data References" which themselves use other attribute values as input for the calculation. This dependency chain might sometimes be complex, when an intensive use of data references is done to obtain the inputs required by the Sigmafine analysis.

The calculated attribute details allow you to have a complete dependency chain of all the calculated attributes.

To view an Attribute's details:

  1. Open the Element Detail Panel.

  2. Click on the Calculated Attributes arrow to expand the list of the Element's calculated attributes.

    Element Details - Calculated Attributes list

    The attribute list is limited to only those attributes having a Data reference configured on.

    The expand symbol (arrow) on the left of the attribute name, indicates that the attribute is depending on other attribute values according to the configured Data Reference.

  3. Click on the expand symbol, to see the details of the used attributes.
